postcard to Jayme written in a past life where the light was dying & you never listened to The Cure -- antithetical essay on the false punx of Crawford County -- after-party at Spider Lake & the last Stay Fast hometown show -- gay bois who won the trade war, pts 1-2 -- the one time we couldn’t go see Backtrack in Detroit & the other time we couldn’t either -- every hardcore band has a song called dead weight -- elder metalheads who’ve all since retired from mosh pits -- gay bois who won the trade war, pt. 3 -- road trip playlist in which i blow a dandelion into your face by the end, one last time.
Summary: ”everyone’s left the hometown show is a mixed media moshpit of poetry and photography, many photos of which were shot at Studio Anatomy in Traverse City prior to its closure in 2022. There is a conversational anger in the chapbook that grapples with the nature of suffering, such that the suffering we choose to endure can be pleasurable, that pleasure can even look like hardcore punks punching us in the face when we need it the most.” - Publisher
