Literature Text

look at me:
and tell me the bagels in the freezer aren’t as cold and unfeeling as my heart,
and that they won’t thaw out as easily.

look at me:
and tell me I’m not good enough.
cut me down so I can show you
the only thing I do anymore is laugh.
everything and nothing is funny anymore.

look at me:
and tell me that feeling like nothing is a bad thing
and that I love irony too much,
and that I love resentment too much,
and that I love you too much.

look at me:
and tell me you wouldn’t be right.
title comes from U2's song, Wire, off their album, The Unforgettable Fire.
