Paradoxical thoughts

anne
  1. Today a kid riding his BMX bike on the sidewalk almost ran into me. I froze, deer-in-headlights and waited–hoped–for him to look up and see me (which he did). But in that brief moment I had a flash of a thought: please don’t look up. Please run me over.*
  2. I want this to be over. But I don’t want to go back to work.
  3. What is my face anymore. Am I human?

*He was going very slow and I don’t think anyone would have gotten hurt it just would have been one of those accidental bike hug situations. Remember those? REMEMBER??!!
