It was getting harder
to detect my image in the mirror
I wasn't disappearing, exactly.
It had been years
since the last attack.
Making matters worse
I came back here to write this
and forced him to drive
to parts unknown.
Do you remember the wreck scene?
I went kind of nuts
and took a baseball bat
to every mailbox on that road.
I still do not have a clue as to what my mission is.
But it was a good thing I wore what I did.
He thinks I'm the bad guy
but I am merely part of the process.
To wit:
we were sitting around
one evening after tea
cutting the air with farts
and exotic bird calls
when suddenly it hit me
that each of us is going to
get his nut in his own way
no matter should
aunt Gertie disapprove
(right, my little droogies?)
The next day I waylaid myself
over the head with a hammer.
How do you think it happened?
I spend a lot of time
on social media...
do the math, dipshit.
One of the nurses banged
on the door.
They ran about a million tests.
You don't want to know.
And then, people started falling,
And then...nothing.
You're fine.
Drink some water.
I transported myself
back to that summer.
I'd stood against the back,
right by the exit.
I'm putting an end to this, I said.
I smelled the smoke.
I thought it was romantic
in a demented sort of way.
You know how the game is played.
Catch me if you can...
but be advised
I've still got that hammer, man.
