Magdalena Number 7

"MAGDALENA #7" it's been three days since I've eaten. today, for some unknown reason, I wanted a maple bar. I got up, grabbed a smoke and walked to the doughnut shop up the way. I messaged Magdalena and told her where I was going. "you and your damn maple bars. why haven't you eaten?" "I don't know," I said. "that hunger just hit from out of nowhere." "you need to eat," she said. "a coke and a maple isn't food. it's junk." it was good to be looked after, no way I could tell her why I wasn't eating. all I needed, was a little of her at that very moment to remind me why, I shouldn't leave this earth.
