the atomic bombs 8
Christopher Savage

a lonely boy
named
saul pettigrew

first heard the reissue of the atomic
bombs’
first album in his early
teens

and didn’t recognize darren
dar

years later when he bumped into him
at a grocery store in
Texas;

the former frontman of the band
had
gray locks and
deaf eyes;

saul would have
shook
the singer’s hand

but it was too late;

the atomic bombs made an attempt
to reunite

a little after

but derrick was already
dead

and jules was
fragile
as glass;

darren, later still,
died on stage playing
new songs with his daughter
