i could see it in the mirror
still looking somewhat the ridiculous figure that made me literally so sick in the first place.
the body slowly becoming leaner. approaching a state of normalcy
now instead of feeling like a grotesque i can walk down the street and be unremarkable except for the malicious glint in my eyes which i mostly keep hidden behind my shades.
restless and sleepless i twist and turn my way through the night, walking farther and farther
last night i walked just over five miles, middle of the night through the crappy neighbourhoods that surround my own crappy neighborhood
i walked past the place where i work, and all the way into the downtown area
dressed neatly and in black, carrying my ID badge from work to dissuade any cops with stupid ideas from rousting me (funny that coos only started hassling me when i stopped nbeing a criminal)
to the red brick, wrought_iron and sculpted landscaping at the park
to the center of the city
but in this dark there was n shadowplay to be seen
i was the only shadow, and in no mood to play
