I take the metro downtown. In the bank I exchange canadian money for american. The security guard doom scrolls instead of noticing me. On rue Sainte-Catherine the junkies sleep as trash blows in the breeze. I stop to smoke a cigarette. It’s good to be alive.
And I need all the reasons I can find not to hate myself. But it’s hard. Even the idea makes me shiver. Because I see loving myself like looking down on others. Riding around on a high horse. And I never want to think I’m better then the people I see on the street. The ones who have it rough. The ones who don’t fit in. The ones I see my own face in.
