now run along. men are talking

apparently the end has an urgency.
My reaction is hovering.
I understand that there are certain souvenirs I cannot take
and time will let my memories fade.

An Alumnus - speaking of the birds
and the taste of things

Storms feel tender and guiding.
Everyone still looks the same
and grows up for a mortgage.

Can I no longer be irresponsible
and enjoy weekends
and hangovers.

The end's urgency is one to finish things, to remember everything, to ready oneself.

There will always be weekend, irresponsibilities, and hangovers that enjoy you.
