"Kingdom of Dust" (粉尘王国)
// BLURB //
Everybody claims that they wanna move on. That they can’t wait until the day comes when they can leave rubber on the pavement and spit that that’s all they’re leaving behind in their dusty hometowns. No, I’ve never seen this land in my rearview mirror and I ain’t planning on seeing it from the other side until kingdom come. See, I’m the ruler of this little zip code and if you can think of one good reason I should give that up, then I’ll be breaking your jaw for having the gall to even think such blasphemous thoughts. Nobody plans to be this way. Nobody lulls themselves to sleep with dreams of stills winding up wooded hills and knuckles crusted over from the cold. It happens to you, maybe. You fight for it, maybe. In any case, it’s me and I’m here and this is just the way it’s gotta be.
