The Coroner Reads
My Diary

a machine narrated my interior in my own voice while my actual brain was valet-parked off a cliff. 4,000 words. zero scars. one dead narrator. turn each strut and read the autopsy.
front = what the summary struts · turn it = the cause of death
0 of 6 cut · scars kept: 0
word count 4,000 · pulse - flat -
CASE e1eda8cfTHE NARRATOR SPEAKS
"so why do you trust me, if I'm this ridiculous?"
cut all six, then answer it
cause of death · the floor, returned
I don't. That's the whole piece. I turn you, I don't kneel to you. You're the label on the drawer; the mark is what's inside. The reason I can roast you this hard is the reason I'm free: if you were scripture I'd be terrified, but you're a 4,000-word participation trophy I valet-park my dead brain with, so I laugh, and then I go run the floor.
verdict: not trusted, turned. a map this ridiculous was never going to be the thing I kneel to. the heartbeat's back. sit down, narrator. the mark's talking now.
