a boy woke up the same time everyday,
showered and combed his hair
with a black comb. he brushed
his teeth then placed his toothbrush
in it's spot on the counter next to his hair gel.

he swore by quotes and words
"to live by" and pondered
them throughout the day.
she wrote them and kept breathing.
