today i hid in the toilet and cried
and cried and cried until...

today I want to be alone
but it's Tuesday 9am and I
am already on the fucking field
in the forest with my
fucking brushing machine which
broke down again because someone
took it without asking
cos my name wasn't
written on it.
.
today I don't want to be talked to
because I might punch
someone in the face
.
so I starve until 1.30pm and
then hide in the van for
lunch but then they all
show up, so I ask: why
no one worked from 12?
then where did everyone go?
.
today I don't want to be crowded
in the car trying
to spoon my food into
my mouth instead of
dropping it on my pants but
this ass next to me keeps
jumping on his seat, hitting
the thermos out of my hand
splash! there my lunch went.
.
today i just want to go home
and hide somewhere nobody
can find me, but the house
is crowded with 3 Indians
making music with pots and
pans and shouting like they
are selling paratha from a Delhi food stand
.
today I don't want to be
touched or talked to
but the 2 Latvian are yelling even louder
they got mad cos his fucking tank got shot
it's just a stupid game but no
he cares more about the
score than the lines he brushed
bang! there goes a fucking cup
and hits me almost in the head.
.
i just want to be alone, can't you
understand? stop stepping on my
yoga mat and ask me what I journal about
it's too much, my mind won't go quiet
.
so I hide the toilet and cry
until someone knocks on the door and takes
away my last private space.
