Opinions
The smell of leather and gunpowder mixed with burnt steak and whore-colored perfume. The smell of sex and the smell of fear. A swelling of weather and a spell of melancholy made me pull up my stake and take the train to this town. I knew you’d be here. Looming like a gust of wind outside your window, I tap the glass, and time no longer passes nor does the sun go down again.
