To Finally Fly Apart Said The Teddybear To Sidra Sid

"literally they are around the corner from the subway," sidra said to teddy

"is there going to be crack," teddy responded "teddy gets the shakes."

clink clink clink

the ice falls into the glass. sidra empties the bottle of vodka into the glass then empties the glass onto teddy

he just lies there soaking it all in. he has no skeletal structure. he's all fluff inside for her. she used to be hugs and now she is this:

"you little motherfucker! why don't you care about me?"

teddy thinks "because i'm not real." somewhere in the center of teddy there lays a suicide note written by a factory worker named rebecca.

the note read:

i try hard not to look in
but in my defense
the walks aren't shorter
from my aunt's home to work
or from work to my aunt's room
and her sermons keep gettin longer
on this gutter's winter arms
silver daggers
men are half human half dogs
there are no non hybrids in this world

my father used to drive me around
with one hand on the steering wheel
and the other choking the neck of
a vodka bottle and the radio would
play such swaggering sounds.

bye

ten years later teddybear's seams finally give up the fight and disappear. as he slowly opens out he says "to finally fly apart" while sidra, on the other side of the closet door, cries about her boyfriend on the phone.
