Once he posted comments on an outdated blog of mine, describing my face in the pictures with words you usually use for ripe fruit. More than once he took my words to replace them with his.
You see I was supposed to open and be co-proprietor of Macelleria 86. Instead, I was the recipient of an envelope with the store’s name embossed on the back. It was quite the reversal of events.
This isn’t a declaration.
This is a showcase of my talents—
getting drunk and sitting down.
I've touched the interiors of too many mouths to feel anything for them anymore.
