I Want to Be Famous and Have No Friends

March 25th, 2008 · No Comments

I will fill in my trail.
No one will find me.

I will burn the wallpaper
and with it all the laughs it has absorbed.

I will bury an eyelash in drying concrete-
and cut my finger on a book at the library.

Surprise!

I am now immortal.
And the horror of a minute alone is mine all mine.
