Remodel
April 19, 2018
I’ve been programmed to do well inside these walls.
I’ve been manufactured, designed, repainted, boxed and shipped to do the best I can in this filthy place.
I hate the conveyer belt.
I hate the hands without faces that remodel me to make me be another product to be sold on the public market.
I am not a toy.
I am not a machine.
I have flesh.
I have feelings.
I can feel pain, motherf***ers!

I was feeling about who I am. I’m in the better chunk of society, but I have no purpose. Everyone expects me to be this great thing but I have no mind of my own.
