I'll die on my feet before I live on my knees
For the first three years life was hard
First thing I learned was if I want cake on my birthday only count on yourself
We lived on the wrong side of the railroad tracks
My sisters and I were constantly being picked on
Then I was reading Mark Twain my whole life I worried about things most of them never happened
Don't do that they will send you to reform school etc
It's all about power and control
Then my first year in upper school
Michelle drove my two sisters and me to school it's raining cats and dogs
Michelle went in to use the litter box and was slapped around by thee of the perfect boys with rich parents that are never going to be punished
Mom called me out of class and when I put my arms around her and Mom said yes probably nothing we can do they said soon or later and I knew exactly what I had to do don't worry this ends now
I was having a moment of perfect clarity and feeling like time had slowed and I realized that I only have these four girls in the whole world
As I walked into the cafeteria they are sitting at their table right by the front door so they can hassle anyone
Just as I get close one of them said what do you want can I borrow a chair for a minute sure whatever
A minute or so later the three of them are on the floor in serious need of medical attention
Looking around All I could see were eyes and open mouths
Nobody fucks with my family and I walked outside and sat down at the front doors and waited for the police
Next morning in court the judge asks me if I have a problem controlling my anger
And once again Susan who is not physically real but mostly really just my live for the moment
Steven is always worried and scared and totally focused on survival and Susan is carefree and has nothing to worry about just live in the moment
And says no I don't think so their still alive
That got a good laugh unfortunately the judge had no sense of humor
Off to the Clark institute for a psychological assessment
See I told you everything would be ok now we get to go to the nut house don't worry it'll be fun
Be quiet Susan
