Hey gods.
Why it gotta be like this?
Is all the pain necessary?
It's bullshit, man.
Bullshit.

My body has different ideas than I do.

a smooth gray oblong shape is laying on a fluffy white pillow, for safekeeping. it appears to be a large basalt sample. it has a white band near one end that resembles a wide mineral vein of white quartz or calcite. there is no banana for scale, so it’s just as possible that this is a gray pitbull asleep on her side with all of her paws tucked in, but we’re sticking with rock for now.

ex wife: So... how are you?

me: Not great. That's for sure.

ex wife: Well, you look like hell.

me: Near death kinda does that.

ex wife: Oh, I understand. I think menopause started last year.

Why do all my med packages say 'take one by mouth per day' ?

By mouth?
As opposed to what?
Shoving phosphorus tablets in my ass and hoping for the best?
