rather be dead than cool

contest title derived from Kurt Cobain quote, you player hater(s)







prompt~

"a pair of legs
where there
was
no water to be found."

inspiration: dusted feet, red violence up

-left-align
-readable b/g's
-no butchering the prompt, por favor.
definition of butchering
would be entering crap.
-I'll probably comment;
meanwhile, be open to constructive criticism

    love the title.... makes me think of ..

    well makes me think of being myself/of anyone being themselves.. you know? against the grain.. or maybe ..if not that then the weight of being 'cool' rather than understood.. which I guess is the same depending on how you spin the perspective..

    and when I condense it all into something I get, I was alone anyway.
