Get Away From The door!
these
magazines
are expired.
the guy
who collected
them is dead.
he's been dead
years now.
i called him
dad.
and these
newspaper
articles
he collected
are obsolete.
but at one
time
he
considered
them worth
something.
'cause they
represent
a time
in history.
i can
get rid
of them
now though
cause i
don't want
them.
i need to
throw them
into the
garbage
where they
belong.
i don't like
old things.
i don't want to
go back
to the past
because...
i just don't
fucking want to!
I want to sweep
away the past
like dust.
i don't want
to see
the old
school,
especially
pictures
of the lunch
room or
the hallways
or old teachers.
i don't want
to know
about it,
i don't want
to know about
death.
i don't want
to know
people at all.
i don't
want to
see people
when i go out.
i don't even
want to see
neighbors or
old cousins.
i don't need to
see people
walking through
town.
i don't want
friends.
my
screwed up
mind;
my screwed up
dreams,
don't know
how to
get
rid of them,
what they
looked like.
what
i saw.
