'I wouldn't date an unattractive girl.' I
believe that's what you said to me- -
verbatim
and i wasn't realizing the
superficiality
behind the statement
because that's how it is
when you're young and ruthless;
of course i had no problem with it,
being on the right side
of that remark-
but unequivocally
inevitably,
i'm certain i despised you
and the comment pricked me all over
like thorns had suddenly grown forth from my bones.
