my friend Kevin, two days after brain surgery

“I tried to sleep. It’s really hard, though. Whenever I close my eyes it’s like this psychedelic nightmare. I see paintings coming to life, that’s what it feels like.  Feels like that painting [on the wall] and the flowers get faces and they start to move and they grow arms and its not necessarily scary as so much as really unnerving, where I want to open my eyes again.”

XOXO.
