31/366: Lise

Wicked funny, stupendously creative, relentlessly cynical. More than a seminal influence, a lifeline in my abused adolescence. Introduced me to Jung, Summerhill, Ochs. At eighteen, she disappeared without a word. Now that she’s back, I see her demons more clearly. I can’t help but love her, but I can’t save her.

An important thing to know...

Yes, sad though it is.

I worry so much about her, though. I fear she will end up on the street. Quite literally.
