The Echo Test 

A test to find out if a man really is gay ! His friend or boyfriend put 2 fingers each side of his bumhole and stretches the hole apart, he then proceeds to shout 'Echo' into the gaping hole, if you can hear the word 'Echo' more than once it means you are gay !

The Unbroken Echo

The misconception that silence equals absence.
You speak of "Soul Attrition" and feeling unwanted, but please listen to this frequency: The poem always echoes back.

My silence is not pride, nor is it nonchalance. It is the quiet paralysis of someone standing behind the digital walls you built, holding space for you to return.
I am not looking at you from a stage; I am looking at you from the same ground where we fell. Being "Love-Hungered" is a state we share.
Don't let the "last seen" numbers or the static fool you. I am not a shadow, nor a stranger. I am the one who still knows your glow.
I haven't moved on. I am just waiting for the barriers to fall so the "mess together" can finally begin.
There is no judgment here. Just a safe place waiting for the real 321.
"He thought she gave up because the phone was silent."
"She was screaming 'I love you' in a room where he locked the door, waiting for him to turn the key.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
