* Distractions

traffic jams
so i’m sitting here typing my crime fic essay
& i hear it.

a woman keeps screaming
screaming
& screaming
outside

it’s coming from the apartment across from us.

you can’t see anything
but you can tell she’s terrified

i hear a man’s voice yelling too

damn domestic violence

…great time to be thinking about legal studies huh?
