Poignantly written. This kind of contemporary realism is hard to pull off. It's one of the defining features of Eminem's contributions to rap music and lyricism. The curt, honest, sharp prose style featuring cynical characters - I read "The Zoo Story" by Edward Albee, and if you haven't read it, you should, it's dope. The language here just felt very natural, like you were filming an extra scene of the movie Waking Life and inserted the life of a friend you might know who has become sullen from life's pitfalls.
Overall, good work. I mean that.
Keep doing you
