Poem – Blair Bishop
Sinking Bell
I had that dream again
The one where I’m falling
The one where I’m sinking
The one where I’m crawling
The one where I’m drinking
My heart on my left, my ego on my right
I’m worried now
Wake up
Please wake up
For the love of God, please wake up
Blair is a trans writer who got their start in 2016 by writing too many words about the video game Tom Clancy’s The Division. What follows until now is a journey spent searching every single corner possible for an experience worth talking about. If you’ve seen it, there’s a high chance she has as well, and if they haven’t, then they sure as hell know a comparison. When not searching every possible end for a potentially unknown classic, Blair can be seen feverishly searching music websites for a soundtrack to the day, or engaging in an argument about which shoegaze album from the 90s is the best. Whether or not that accolade belongs to Ride’s “Going Blank Again” doesn’t matter, what matters is that if their mates are unsure of what to listen to, Blair will throw a playlist in their general direction.
