things i hate

insomnia
lose-lose decisions
loneliness
crowds
overly solicitous people
having one of my poems used as evidence against me
the inability to memorize
age
fear of the cold
fear of the cat who will not rest as i try to sleep
hunger that makes no sense
certain death
certain life, the dawn, the need to move forward
myself
my inability to let things go
my inability to care
my inability to care enough
my evil, my selfish, my ignorance, my lack of empathy
the way my mouth curves down most days
my teeth and their crooked truth telling
parents, sister, wife and more
my self
me
myself and my unexpressed revolts
