Honorary member of the endulgance party, i resign myself to the corner of the night. Thank you for having me, please let me fill your cup. I can pace your walls all night. Learn to knit, she said, like this isn’t my shining moment. If I could learn to want it less, I would cease to be. Verification of the self happens constantly. Click the buses so that you can be human. Refill the glass so that you can be here. We invent little machines to complete these tasks. In all your stories of the future, i am eradicated. Robot comes from a word meaning ‘Forced Labor’ but i want this. To labor. To be seen laboring. I have a machinists heart. Tell me you hate it so I can do it again. Over again. Better repulsive than fine. Keep my hands busy. A perpetual swailing in my mind until i’m clean of trees to see through. Better a glass than a wall. You have come all this way, and I am still imperfect, even here. There is water all over the floor. Won’t you let me make me worth the wade?
