I long for the loneliness of Los Angeles. I miss its shiny exterior and its hollow core. I always find myself at home in this dangerous labyrinth. And when I get hungry, I crave those small glimmers of hope, the sweet twinkling sustenance fed to me night after night. I know I am so close to the bedside of a corrupted machine. I watch the birth of beautiful clones and someday I’ll be part of that assembly line.
