No Longer
"NO LONGER"
when I was a kid I disappeared.
many people were called:
friends
family
hospitals
cops
jails
even the mayor of Mexico.
I was surprised at the effort that
went into looking
for me.
I loathed it all.
years passed and these days as
at 32, I lock myself in my room
and write.
what day is it anyway?
friday, saturday, thursday, wednesday?
I live inside the systematic system.
this is temporary as everything
eventually goes to ****.
the climax:
no effort is put forth to miss me
since I've disappeared again.
there are no calls.
oh how I’ve longed for such an honor.
