"Persistent Entropy"
by APL
One Hundred Words became full-on-silence. I wondered what people said about me behind my back. In front of my face. Toward the mirror, toward the wall, toward the stove or fire. No one, however, would tell me what I did wrong. Did I make them see themselves too much? Was I too proud to have lived despite the attempts to kill me? Is it because the spirit world tried to torture my mind and kill my body and eat my soul, rather than other humans, that I am not to be liked?
So, instead, I learn to become lovingly useful.
