"There are boys who move away from our shit town and boys who don’t." by carlyalaimo in Flash Frog

Fantastic piece from carlyalaimo in Flash Frog - I was reeled in by that breathless first sentence that intentionally delays and delays the opening subject-verb: "Here in this pine-addled expanse where everything is a tree until it’s a farm until it’s a subdivision..."

"There are boys with glasses who listen to Sufjan Stevens and read beat poetry before they can understand it. They tell us we are beautiful. We fall in love with them." Gutting piece by carlyalaimo in Flash Frog. Dang! This is brilliant!

can confirm: every kind of boy to ever exist in a town that also includes a Kroger's has been anthropologically and unflinchingly catalogued, by carlyalaimo, for Flash Frog flash-frog.com/2024/05/20/boy…

We're closing ACCOMPLISHMENT SUNDAY with a story 🙌 Fiction Reader carlyalaimo published a piece in @flashfoglitmag. Enjoy "Boys" and we'll see you soon! buff.ly/4bSGdeo

"There are guitar boys and the boys who want nothing to do with us because they are studying for the SATs." carlyalaimo in Flash Frog flash-frog.com/2024/05/20/boy…
