Human Unless You Tell Me Otherwise

 Imagine that your ex-girlfriend 

is like an older brother to you

She bullies you a bit when you wrestle

puts you in a loose headlock

but always lets you get away

Imagine they know about your childhood

the calls to 911 and the operator saying

Is this an emergency?

Yes

No

I don’t know 

Are you imagining?

 Can you send someone to 2511 East 24th St?

Apt 14

I’m just speculating 

No, I take it back

they’re just pillow fighting

but eventually

No one will care that 

this isn’t working

And your ex-girlfriend will just be shouting

Why the fuck didn’t you fight for me?

Why didn’t you burn down the bar for me?

How did you not see me
