good for you. How nice.
For some of us though
thisisurgent.
Maybe this is just silly makeup
and fun times to you
but to me, this is a job—
a career starter.
I want to do this well and right.
So fuck you if you don’t
want in—I don’t need you or—
Whoa!
Hey—Lyric, slow down.
Hold on a minute.
We are off the ice now
and Lyric is shoving things
into her bag.
I hobble over to her
still in my skates
and sit down next to her.
I’ve obviously missed something here,
I say.
Can we start again?
Help me understand
what just happened?
Lyric is shaking
her face lit up with fire
her whole body
taut and tense.
I do need this money, I continue,
but you’re right.
