I saw your ad

I heard you like tarot cards

and hate yourself

that’s so weird

really

I’m the same

I’m not joking

I have a whole deck

a special blanket -

I mean

cloth for them

quilt?

bed?

no I’m not making fun of you

they’re black right?

the cards?

okay

right

but what do you call it

that thing you put them on?

well

honestly

I don’t know anything about

tarot cards

I’m sorry

you just seemed so interesting

what?

the other thing?

I’m not sure

I was diagnosed with narcissistic

borderline personality

something or other

but I don’t believe it

you see

I was drunk most of the time

I was at the office

there’s that

and you know

each time I say that

“there’s that”

I think of Garden State

you’re right

I’m a white twenty something

who hates himself

that proved it

sorry to waste your time
