Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate) are from Fenton, Michigan

“

When I was eight or nine, I took a trip up north with my brother, my father and my uncle We woke up early and packed bagged lunches and cans of pop into a cooler, and drove to a canoe rental in Mesick We split up in two canoes I imagined us as Lewis and Clark, charting acres of unspoiled land as the Manistee opened up like a canvas We crawled at a slow, lazy pace and reached the landing as the sun began to slide behind the horizon, and pulled our boats ashore It was still warm and we were exhausted so we jumped into the water to cool off, as my uncle launched into a speech about the history of the Petoskey stone and how rare it would be to find any here Then he reached into the river bed and pulled one out on his very first try We spent the rest of our time trying to find another one but came up empty-handed”

Nouns are from Conway, Arkansas

"

underneath the table little ghost legs stick out worn out from hide and seek from being weak from the ceiling my legs fall down worn out from all the running from being stepping on sunflower seeds at the carnival dangling from swing-sets in the schoolyard tapping under a desk filled with poetic bullshit squeaking in halls after the rain so restless now let me rest closer still closer still narcissistic in my self-loathing little ghost legs, run on home"

Suis La Lune are from Stockholm, Sweden

"

You started crying right in front of me So then I embraced you and I swore I'd never let you go. I would never let you hurt yourself, like I do Then I pulled you tighter and I never wanted to let go. Try to see it through my eyes - for the first time Understand, it's further from the truth. Try to see it through my eyes - for the last time Understand, it's further from the truth. Just the other day you were standing next to me with tears in your eyes My eyes are blurring The colors washes out I need to see it with my own eyes I've started... I've started to fade out I just wish I could believe in what I see. Don't show the tears in your eyes Don't show what I'm becoming."

Mineral are from Austin, Texas.

"

In winter when the air gets cold And breathing causes white ghosts to appear They light up the city with Christmas trees And strings that hang across the street From telephone pole to telephone pole So that when I'm driving home at night Tired frustrated and pinned down by spite I'm reminded of your love Unlike these things will never change Or fade or pass away"

"

Salt stains on my shirtsleeves From when you left Poor me (Our hearts!) Beat at the same tone (for years!) Now they beat alone (Breathe in!) Pretend I'm okay (Breath out!) I am not okay (Move on!) The motions are the same Toothpaste kisses haunt my nightmares When I wake up, why aren't you there? There's a fucking hole in my chest You're gone, I'm gone, there's nothing left Feel the weeks turn into months, remember I loved you once? Who I knew has turned to dust, blown away and broke my trust I wave goodbye to that, I wave goodbye to us Salt stains on my shirtsleeves, you left and I found a new me You left and I found a new me"

Shizune are from Lonigo, Italy

"

Istanti sbiaditi dal tempo risplendono oggi piu vivi in ogni sorriso mancato mentre il calare del silenzio riempie l'aria che ho perso nello strozzare le parole nel trattenere il fiato nel distorcere lo sguardo tutte le volte in cui mi hai cercato soltanto oggi per ogni passo impiego anni nel ricordare com'era allora o come sarebbe stato senza averti accanto proprio dietro di me non voglio restare sospeso nel tempo in cui ogni momento è all'ombra di un mare bagnato dal sole stringo il mio cuore con la mano ferita nel contare i battiti persi negli anni ormai è tutto per me."

Merchant Ships are from South Bend, Indiana

"

Hey! Let's leave home and go to New Jersey, six hundred miles away from our problems; let's be happy. Vomit from our fucking mouths, bile in our throats, let's not come back. Let's run away, I don't want to stay in this state another day, and when we're there we'll forget ourselves and tell our ghosts to go to hell. (It's what we do at this age that helps us earn our fucking name, and no matter what I promise you we'll never be the same.) But now we're here, no more thinking. Late night friendships, mistakes are breeding. It's no regrets, stranger's smiles, where are you? The sunsets, set. I've found that nothing looks the same when you're in a dream, so don't look away because we might wake up. Let's leave home and never come back. Let's never wake up."

"

Hey. I'm dazed on your front lawn tonight. I'll drive home screaming At the Drive-In. I've been driving this thing for too long, and on and on and the point is etc. I will explode if I don't. Believe me, that I know. I will explode if I don't kiss you now. I've been living like a sailor, my sea legs are wearing down."

Flowers Taped to Pens are from San Diego, California.

"

bags under my eyes, just one coke, maybe i'll shave my beard today, stop caring about people i cant see, start cherishing those in front of me, and i'll stay watching anime all day outside too bright and the days too long, and when the sun has set we'll meet at the alley and we'll skate all night long ( looking back at time thats past, these are friends i hope will last, they see a brighter future in me). smoke clouds in parking lots, we'll slowly die together, and we'll skate and cry, cliche and broken lives, even if you leave my side, broken strings and cancerous themes, i'll never forget the memory of just me and my sad friends"

Blue Lotus is from Calgary, Alberta

"

I picture myself in older age placing flowers on the table in a painfully silent room with no assurance from anyone that things were in fact, real or that anyone remembers how I said I felt, and as I sit down at the table with a pen, and some paper I glance up quickly at the flowers, and something clicks and I am back there I discover a photographic memory for carefully arranged and planted produce in evenly seeded rows, and I discover a photographic tendency for an ever changing face, placed at a distance, hidden in figures of speech and slips of a faded tongue “You look like someone that I know, but not as well as I know you, or so I thought I knew” and it all comes crashing back I’m in my kitchen with a lacerated vision of a past with no redeemers of a life I didn’t live in of a god with no believer, a believer with no god."
