Why am I crying?
  I don’t know why I am crying. Everything is going
  wrong, but nothing specific. I have to destroy it all:
  it is too vague to be localized. It is simply a matter
  of weakness. I am weak where others are strong.
  
  What they meet as a challenge, I find an impossible
  obstacle. Everything is impossible. How they ease
  into uncertainty, these people like me in every way
  but one-- a matter of strength and weakness.
  
  Contented people are a mystery. They have their
  mild ennui, their major crises. They are not perfect.
  But I envy them. If they cry, they at least have
  a reason for it. They are rational beings.
  
  I am a mess of things that make no sense
  when paired together. An instance, an anecdote;
  there is no continuity. I despise this shell of a
  body, this slug of a mind.
