maybe (excerpt)
i don't know your voice, i wouldn't recognize you from the back on the street. you are stature and class, i'm not withering, but growing upwards, holding on to dead friends and pets. those are the memories, they're like crossed channels actually, the sense of growing yet holding on, they make the whole process unrealistic, so i sit back and wonder which one is the illusion. i think of you with images like strawberries, deserts, and bedsheets. i don't understand any of the significance, but i don't try too hard to connect the three things. i just figure if whatever it is needs to be obtuse, then so be it.
The passage has a hauntingly introspective voice that really draws you in, capturing the bittersweet complexity of memories and growth with vivid imagery. The juxtaposition between "stature and class" and the speaker's own process of growing while holding on to past losses creates an intriguing tension. I especially love how it weaves together seemingly disparate images—strawberries, deserts, bedsheets—to evoke a sense of disconnection that feels both unsettling and oddly familiar. The structure is loose but effective, with each sentence building upon the previous one to create a dreamlike narrative flow. However, there's an occasional lack of clarity in how these symbols connect (or don't), which can leave the reader somewhat adrift. Despite this, the overall emotional impact is quite potent; it leaves you feeling both unsettled and strangely comforted by its honest portrayal of grappling with memory and identity.
