Staring down, shuffle through the neighborhood, looking for answers between the paving stones. I come across a gutter drain and step on it: clonk! Interesting. It's loose. Clonk, clonk, clonk! Then I hear a voice below me.
Hi!
I kneel and call out: Is someone there?
Hello there! the girl voice replies..
What are you doing down there? I ask.
Me? I'm not down, you're down! she replies.
Me? Sure I'm gloomy, but you're literally down in the sewer!
She sounds distraught: What is this?
I shout: You're confused. Hang on! I'm getting help
And I run.
After a dozen steps I nearly trip over a girl. She sits bent over on the sidewalk and screams into a gutter drain: You're confused yourself and you need help! Sir are you still there?


earthquake when i first joined this site i had no idea what i was doing with my life. such a terrible place. i come here every once in a while when my mind needs to explore. where is everyone?maybe im a bad person im sorry!! it unfortunately took me a while to somewhat piece together the story lolthat was one funny twist lol actually wasn't expecting that XDwe're all down in the dumps not for long though :) step one way step another but then your upside down againGutter I like this one. It makes me think of the emotional equivalent of the doorway dance when you try to move out of someone's way but just end up stepping in their way again. I do this a lot, oops!
