Take a Picture It’ll Last Longer

The old world is dying and the new world

is actually also concurrently dying; it’s not

a good time. I heard they were able

to laser off your tattoo

of a ten-point spread; was there any discussion

of keeping it and lasering you off

instead? I’m just checking. I’m just feeling

fine. It’s a short straight line

 

from reading a book about a rich girl

growing up in New York City—

the high-rise and the hot stone and the shingled

ocean outpost—to taking 3:1 odds

on whether I can die and then come back. No

other way to make that much that fast.
