there’s a hole

in my head

there’s a hole

in my pocket

there’s a hole

in the floor

there’s a hole

in the door

i’m gonna find it

i’m gonna fill it

there’s a hole

I sang that part of the song over and over. And my mouth was so dry and my throat was so raw and tired, but I kept singing it.

After about a while — it might have been an hour, no kidding — I stopped singing and came out of the closet and went to the sink and slurped water out of my hand for like ten minutes straight.

Then I crossed to the window and looked down at the alley. It was still raining, and there was some wet cardboard where that guy from before had been sitting. Someone probably came by and stabbed him to death and dragged him into the river. Someone from one of those Caucasian rap-video gangs. They either stabbed him or strangled him with pantyhose.

I eventually made my way to the bed. I stared up at the ceiling for a while and fell asleep wondering how I was going to get through the next few days.
