Maxi-mum effect!

On the way to the alleys of nothingness,

I dropped by your place.

There was a fat cat sitting in front of your door and licking its paws.

I remember it staring at me for a good thirteen seconds.

The moon was obscenely bright that night.

It almost hurt my eyes.

But my city looked beautiful.

And lonely.

Just like me.

You weren't home.

I went in nonetheless.

Your clothes were scattered all around.

I hugged them tight and smelt them until I cried.

Then I looked at my shadow on the wall opposite the window.

It was ugly.

Uglier than I look with the lights on.

The clock went on ticking.

Tick-a-doodle-doo tick-a-doodle-doo...

A drunken security guard whistled somewhere far away.

I sat on the floor right under the bed.

I traced the lines my blood must have followed the other night.

It always bleeds a little when you do it

but I refuse to have you otherwise.

There are times when I wish we hadn't met.

There are times when I wish I had a dick in stead of a pussy.

There are times when I wish the tears streaming down my cheek were hot enough to burn my skin.

Like I said,the moon was obscenely bright that night.

And I was visibly naked.

So was the sky.

On my way out,

I saw the loyal cat still staring at me with suspicion written all over its face.

I threw a stone aiming its head and broke its skull into pieces.

Then I heard myself sharing a hearty laugh with my ugly shadow.

Contrary to what the words would have you believe, if you collect impersonal data, y life has never been better. If you remember the Elle meet I had blogged about earlier, the pictures are from that event only. As you might remember, we tried on quite a few outfits over there. I had a little trouble fitting into this maxi but like the title says, once I slipped into it and tied the scarf on and accessorized it with a super romantic clutch, the effect was maxi-mum!
