I didn’t like this,
and I just wanted to be better than this—
than all of it,
or you would write me off,
the way they did that favorite of mine with no run on sentences,
the way I felt at the end of Bull Durham,

and it didn’t matter that I was lonely,
but it did matter that I was tired,
that I wasn’t ready for anything I prepared for—

none of it
