how can it have been two months already
I’m starting, only starting to pick up all the pieces—your books, your CDs, your letters, my goodness, your words
feels like eternal sunshine, a conversation we must have had twice or more, would you erase me if you could?
would you?
the fourth passed and then the nineteenth
I read your letter in that same place where we sat, it was two years ago now, it was by the water—do you remember?
two months out-of-body, the longest silence we’d never have again, that was a year ago and here we are, awake for the first time since March, sleep-starved
to the sleepless, this is my reply: I will write you a lullaby

“This work consists of three microscopic writing tablets, on which the lines of writing have been arranged in such a way that they form unobtrusive panels. Inside the panel curves, the letters prayer have been arranged anagrammatically in micro-script. No white margins have been left. [Detail]
I was looking for a writing activity that made heavy demands in terms of physical strength, optical sharpness and sense of duty, and decided to use micro-script. I wrote in this exacting way for 10 to 15 minutes every morning for two years, without using a magnifying glass. (This kind of writing can be endured for only a quarter of an hour.)”

You’ve got blue blood on your hands, I know it’s my own
You came at me in the midnight to show me my soul
Of all the people, I hoped it’d be you…

Mom: You're eating a lot of junk food lately...
Me: I have AP exams, I need comfort food.
Mom: Your room is a mess, clean it.
Me: I have AP exams, I don't have time.
Mom: Do your laundry.
Me: I have AP exams.
Mom: be nice to your brother
Me: AP EXAMS!
Mom: why are you yelling?
Me: EXAMS!
This violin would have been made for the Royal Household either late in the reign of Charles II (r. 1660-1685) or during the reign of James II (r. 1685-1688). The ornate carving on the back would have been highly fashionable at about this time, and it includes the Royal Stuart coat of arms before the royal arms were modified at the time of the accession of William III and Queen Mary in 1688.
