Little Black Dot

on the porch just now, this little thing just bubbled into my head.
i don't know where it came from, it just floated up from the bottom as these things are wont to do at this time of night, which is likely why i'm usually asleep by this hour.

nothing you can say can make it go away

and i came back in and i thought
i have heard this somewhere before.
i have
heard
this.
where
did i hear this
from.

so i typed it all into google and of course, it was our dear paulie
of the heartbreaking monologues, come back to haunt me in this
back slanting time. come back as if to ask me, ok chelsea,
how far have you come?
