They charged me $65 to change the locks

after she moved out

nothing I did, but everything I didn't do...

$65 dollars I said, maybe she made copies, maybe she wants to come back and steal everything, not much but maybe,

or including the cat!

The fat white trash lady shrugged her shoulders,

she has kids to feed, maybe a fat husband too!

Is this fucking ethical?

You guys are fucked! I said, you're no different than me!

The guy who changed the lock was huge!

Seriously a huge fat ass!

had to turn sideways to come in the door,

I sat holding the cat,

the couch was gone.

"hot as hell outside, he said"

"fucking-a-right"

I have to go to the shop to get a key.

"Ok" I said

I sat holding my cat

When he came back I thanked him,

he turned sideways to go out the door,

and again I was alone.

Again this was happening

I thought, ah back to being normal,

while the world moved on,

alone in my tiny apartment,

everything dying in front of me.
