Solipsism


This is not literature, it is abandonment.

A man can live long enough to have nothing left,
to exhaust generosity, to find himself alone in the world.
In a few months the lease on my apartment will expire
and I will have nowhere to go.
I have no right to ask favors of anyone, and so I will not.
I have only survived this long by taking advantage of the kindness of women,
but they can’t care about someone who doesn’t care about himself.

I suppose it will be sometime in the month of June, then.
Twenty six years old.
It seems like such a waste.
