    My Darling Clementine

    ★★★½

    I can’t remember the last time I used a condom. It’s the 21st century, if you aren’t hitting it raw are you even having sex? Have you even lost your virginity? I would go as far as to say you’ve never experienced an orgasm. Ehhh okay, no. I take that last one back. You’ve experienced a weak orgasm. A very, very, very weak orgasm.

    It’s my most painful failure. 
    I can hardly stand to think about it. 
    Some days it creeps in and will not leave. 
    Those are the days I’m not sure I can continue 
    to exist.
    More painful than illness or injury,
    rejection or remembrance, 
    it’s my biggest regret. 
    Inescapable on unsuspecting warm days 
    that should be well and good. Pushed so 
    deep down that it inevitably comes out 
    at inopportune moments. 
    Bawling on peaceful mornings, or during
    dumb movies—times where crying makes no sense. 
    Standing alone in a field
    determined to leave but with nowhere
    to go.

    An ocean away and two days late. Forgive me, Dane. Too many feelings wrapped up in this movie and an inability to talk about them—my greatest shortcoming. Instead here’s a poem by Raymond Carver.

    I just have to say it… I hate watching movies with old people in the theatre. And this is certainly an old person movie. I get terrified every time they put anything in their mouth because they might choke. When they start coughing I get totally distracted from the movie, and the only thing I can focus on is if they can intake breath. I stay attentive just in case I need to jump up and perform the Heimlich Maneuver. I hate it.

    It has brother stuff. That’s a relatable theme for a guy like me (I have a brother).
