I READ a few pages of that HORROR book
ALOUD because
I ALSO can't read silently
when I'm in THIS state
&
ALMOST instantly
I dislike the
NARRATOR
WHY
the WAY she SAYS things
SHE uses "The" cap-mid-sentence
I recognize a similarity to the WAY I USED to
describe things
in stories
I would tell
I'm LIKE
WHY does that make you
DISLIKE her
it reminds me of the time
when I performed
my pain*
I think of that as somewhat distasteful
& we're distancing
NOPE
LOOK AWAY
*I think we are talking about when I would tell anyone about anything**
**ok, that actually made me laugh out loud-- there's more to the sentence, but I laughed, ok, seriously, when I was a kid, I seemed always to have been doing this bit, ya know, like here's my STORY
I THINK it started
with somebody
ASKING me
my parents got divorced when I was one and a half years old
& the FIRST memory
I have of my MOTHER
was HIDING
in the
CLOSET
saying tell her I went to China
