HIKIKOMORI

< by ellen kennedy and tao lin >

dear ellen

last night i had a ten-hour nightmare about cheese beasts.

when i woke i was trembling in the corner of my room screaming, 'the cheese is in the kitchen, the cheese is in the kitchen!'

i crawled to my bed and thought, 'the cheese is in the kitchen, the cheese is in the kitchen!' for ten hours and then fell asleep and had a dream about chapbooks.

for breakfast i ate a light green apple with tiny brown specks on the skin.
