Appetite...
Humor me. This is shit, but I need to say something sequential.
The body. This machine.
…
From the beginning…
I turn the doorknob and cruise through the vacant foyer. I round a corner and am confronted by my feline. Her name is Smelly Gas Bag.
We all call her “Smelly” for short.
Smelly is hungry, so I escort her to the garage where her water and food dish are located. She hops up onto the dryer and stares at her empty food dish, than turns her expectant face towards me, a pleading stare beckoning me to satiate her appetite.
“What a cute and dependent little creature,” I think to myself.
A cute and dependent little creature that, had she not been inbred into such a domestic and useless body, would have eaten me. That is, she would have willingly cannibalized my body in order to perpetuate her machine.
Simple, functional, nutritional…
Sharing.
Or something.
Nothing personal as the action is entirely without any sort of malice or emotional anything. Smelly is a cat. She is an unemotional animal, and all of my personification of her will not change her mechanistic behavior.
My girlfriend left me two days ago. She said that, although she enjoys my company, she would rather not be tied up in the binding confines of a relationship right now.
Or something.
Verbally manifesting her reasons is superfluous, because she didn’t break it off for personal reasons, only practical ones.
Or something.
What counts is that she felt nothing by telling me this. She could have been talking to anybody anywhere. There was nothing special or interesting or compelling about breaking up with me, just that there was no longer any need for me in her life or her time.
Another bowl of food, poured out by a sensitive hand, to be devoured without ever even having tasted the meal.
Just sustenance.
Nutrients.
Vitamins and minerals…
Or something.
I could have been anybody and she was never really there.
