Those vegetables.
They claim being in the here and now should be one’s highest aim.
Where else have I been?
Even in boredom.
I’m here.
In anger.
I’m here.
Praying for a merciful death atop the toilet voiding my bowels violently. I’m here.
I’ve been here.
Waiting.
While you fritter.
Waiting.
When you finally settle.
I’ll be gone.
