I am so tired of being trapped in this decaying body. Trapped in this bleak town, where finding someone who actually reads and thinks is all but a lost cause. Most here prefer to play hockey, drink to excess, and get into fights with one another. I'm fucking tired of being teased with just a tiny sample of a good life, a companion, a connection... Something to make my time imprisoned within this species somewhat bearable. Only to have it ripped away for reasons completely beyond my control. The reasons don't even matter anymore, I know the pattern all too well- I've been kicked in the balls by it for 33 years now. A third of a goddamn century, and probably close to half my sentence here. I'm tired of being bullied by god, the universe, the herd in which I live.
