When I was a kid, I found a corpse doing slow pirouetses on that cursed carousel by Thompson Lane. Dude looked like he tried to stare a demon and blinked eyes wide mouth open spine arch like he got smited mid tick tock. And I don't know why this memory keeps biting my ankles. Why my brain insists on marinating in
nightmare marinade? Wild death is the only promise we ever get. Yet folks treat it like Voldemort with a day job. Every sunrise, every spell night. The fear of being human keeps ripping my aura. I claim I'm fearless, cosmic
enlightening. But that human fear. Yeah, it's in my chakras. Renree free. I've always thought I'd make a decent mortician. I haven't felt a genuine emotion since Pokemon Gen One. Half my
fantasies involve surviving a zombie apocalypse on with nothing but caffeine and poor decisions. And if EVERYONE'S terrified their legacy might evaporate, maybe we should all carve our handle straight into our femurs. Permanence is my kink apparently. So when I die, someone please candle in Latin with
dramatic flurry. So archaeologists argue about me. Every sunrise, every spell night, the fear of being human on my astral body. I swear I'm stoic warrior coded. But that human fear, yeah, it clings like a stage five familiar.
Cling, cling, cling. A squirrel is just a rat with a glamour spell. Me, me. I'm a cockroach with plot armor and dream alley has personally signed off on my warranty office bump and he got a demon saint or crypted but I still worry I'll leave a metaphysical mess behind and my
family get stuck with the tab the tab who's playing the tab tab the cursor tab every sunrise every spell night the fear of being human. That ancient gremlin perched on the skull of mankind
keeps humming its dumb little song. On on on and on and on.
