Disconnected Triumph
#WritcoStoryChallenge
The tricoloured flag evoked a myriad of emotions in us. We watched with pride as it rose towards the summit. We had won.
I woke up thinking in strange cartoon type words:
Pride? Myriads?
Who is We?
I had gone to sleep on Aug 8 . i woke up on Aug 12th.
It had been a tough week
I was in a humid basement, in a familiar part of Pittsburgh, near Forbes and Murray.
i moved up the stairs that opened to Forbes Ave. it was hung humid but breathable
I was in disconnect.
the words were stupid and limp
Proud ? Proud of what? That I clean dishes when I'm not using paper ones?
That I share a refrigerator w a medical student who keeps body parts in there?
Proud that I have to get up at 3 am to make bagels?
i have so much to be proud of
What?
Myriads of emotions
Um seems I stick a regimen of three kinds of depression, low medium and high
What idiot stuck these words in my head?
No one I want to meet.
