A GIRL , A BOY , A LOSER — such a boyish thing to say. calling her a girl as if she was just another schoolmate in the hallways. as if she was something pretty to stare at ( she was though, wasn’t she? ) of course she was pretty. you knew it, the gang knew it. putting her in the same category as any other girl was a real cheap shot and you, richie tozier, seemed to be the king of cheap shots; only you’d attempt to pass them off as something more than that. a pinch to your side leaves you squirming, rolling off of her with nothing short of a heavy huff.
“ know better and be better and bev, i am the best. ” an ego the size of the moon, surely. only it’s one you portrayed to others - one that you faked everyday to seem better than you felt. “ - that’s bullshit! you came at me brandishing a weapon! an assassin. ”
❛ ❛ sure , you’re the best . ❜ ❜ 𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 𝐈𝐍 𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐘 ------------ no one is quite as they seem . the people whisper , spread rumors : the kid’s aren’t alright . they’ve been found in the sewers , their voices circling the drain in a sudden hiccup of / red . ( RED LIKE YOUR BATHROOM . LIKE THE RED / ROOM THAT YOUR FADDER NEVER SAW . ) ‘hind your teeth , the blood pools , the blood ‘verflows . . . & repeats . a , repeats the things you will not say , your bloodied - flag surren / der . q , my scarlet - letter life ? my need to run to , not ‘way ?
your need to play ‘long . YOUR NEED TO ACT LIKE A CHILD / to pretend . to feel as ------------ yourself ------------ ‘fore you forget . roll eyes , snort . ❛ ❛ hey , it is not bullshit ! look ------ ❜ ❜ silver clatters , silver stills . ❛ ❛ there , the knife’s down . happy ? ❜ ❜
