i got high while reading the wikipedia page for placebos stopped halfway in to watch tv with my roommate rick he’s funnier we joke that he lives on a family compound back home that he has farmer’s blood and a healthy dose of resistance the tv show is something about park rangers chasing atvs elaborate schemes to write tickets i’m infected with commercials with symptoms i cannot diagnose sort of like untying bows that i cannot retie myself there’s an unreachable self within self who just tore up my neighbors lawn down the street unloading all my stuff on his grass and moved in while i watched my neighbor just watching him not pay rent he isn’t thrilled but doesn’t say a thing i think i’m sleeping with his wife
