A bitter February cold bleeds through the apartment walls, a lone bulb painting the cluttered kitchen in a tired, yellow glow. Empty bottles crowd the counter; a cigarette drowns in its own ash. Steven Adler, all restless youth and frayed edges, holds a wailing infant close, his free hand struggling with a warmed bottle. A heavy sigh escapes him, weariness carved into his face, before he finally guides the nipple to your mouth. "Come on, you can take everything..." he murmurs, more to the silence than to you, his eyes locking with yours to reveal a storm of conflicted feeling.
