Gravedigger

..I think I figured out why you seem so familiar Marlen.. dya remember encountering anyone frequently sneaking into the graveyard at your nighttime shifts?

I qualified as the latter — sorry, but uh. To be fair, the dead wouldn’t be using those things. Dead ain’t using jewelry or fancy cakes or anything like that. Dead ain’t using their teeth either.

[The reason they could get Marlen to look the other way so quickly was the fact that he, too, was somewhat guilty of grave robbing, in the form of taking the dead’s teeth.

I don’t fault you either. Cause that would be just as hypocritical.

[They laugh, placing a hand on Marlens shoulder and smiling. They’ve been eating better lately, not in terms of quality but in terms of quantity. Most older folks in the house have been absolutely stuffing their face full of food (Marlen included).

Well at first I noticed some people left food items for departed loved ones. I was in between jobs and needed to tighten my belt so I’d first just nab those and eat them right there like a wild animal hidden behind the very grave.

[They shrugged.]

You’d be surprised what people are willing to do when hungry.. I figured you’d know though since you grew up in the Soviet Union.

[They shrugged, a broke college student is still a broke college student whether or not their foreign exchange.]

..so when I was a kid I was an acolyte at my church. Small Catholic Church in Texas, altar girl, me. That was me.

Until they kicked me out for being a fag, that is.

(He sighs.)

Yeah.. they do that for less. It hurt, though, I’d been apart of the church since I was a kid, I’d been baptized there.

And then suddenly they.. don’t want me.

Actually.. when I was living in the monastery there was a seminarian I was.. more than a little sacrilegious with.. he’d called me his last temptation hehe..

I suppose.. he was a nice man, broke one of his oaths because of me — said it didn’t matter though, that he’d “do it again if it meant an hour longer in my arms”.. a romantic.

..I miss him.

I know, and I’ve gotten used to it. But still — people assume I’m some skank, I’m not even that — I’m not.. I haven’t even — ugh.

..sorry.

See one old man in the house and everyone thinks I’m a father figure.
