Stand up, New Republic! Curious. Gradated. Shuffle your papers. We all start somewhere. Give UP while you're young!

Artist History Black Society Meeting. We know each other's names but we've never been formally introduced. Handshakes all around. One girl goes down--back flat on the floor in the grips of gran mal delirium. No one bothers to administer the insulin. We are borne from a lethargy that dare not speak its name, but cover-up insecurity with depressants and parlor games. Give a shout-out to the close friend you haven't met yet. Social gadfly gives the city's best head, but only to the ones with some pull at the local tavern. Just a wink to the doorman and a kick to the dying on the vine, coiled in their bedrooms just awaiting their time. Black Society Meeting, formal dress required, fashionably wired: meet the new inheritants, pretenders to the throne. (3 a.m. goes home alone).
