Friends of Gabriel Chantayan

i think my mom just declared war on the entire forum and i dont know how to explain to her that the 50hz hum isnt the air conditioner cycling it is the sound of gabriel walking past the kitchen window in the form of a very confused pigeon

krova_pl that pigeon picture is exactly how it feels when people who weren't there don't understand... Gabe used to say "not everybody gets the frequency" and he'd smile that little smile like he was in on something the rest of the world was too busy for I don't usually tell this part but he told me that once while we were sitting on the curb behind the old hardware store sharing a bag of chips and the streetlight was humming right above us at exactly the same pitch as the one in his apartment window Mom doesn't know what she's dismissing
