(part one here)
it was impossible to read with that boy on my mind. i could have spent an eternity gazing upon a page full of text and not retain a word because the thoughts of him pull me back to the surface.
who was he? a grad student?
i longed for one more glimpse. i resorted to lingering outside the university library beneath the stone lion statue every night until the distant clock tower sounded its 11 o’clock bell.
a month had passed without any sight of him.
unable to read, i packed my things away and ambled out into the cold. with every blink, my eyes landed upon a different spot hoping he would fall into my view.
my hope was all but drained when i suddenly felt something strange beneath my foot. i stopped in my tracks to see what was on the ground:
tortoiseshell spectacles with a shattered lens and a wooden pipe.
both i’d seen before.

Photo
the clouds have assumed a snowy physiognomy, and the last of the leaves have fallen to the ground. crisp winds flush our cheeks as the frosty grass signals the fall of the autumn empire. descending upon us is the antithesis of paradise, only to be mourned with a reread of a scott fitzgerald classic.
