Everytime she meets someone new, she tells them about her nickname,
Sucky. She is of that kind.
What she need and want oceans apart.
Her years of practicing away her shyness until she layed down on
her floors, wiped like bugs on car-windows.
She pulled herself like a puppeteer, ventriloquisting her every thought.

In high school, someone told her a joke in the girls' bathroom, she'd
laughed too hard. This is the core on which all her memories spring.

In her apartment she reads her thoughts aloud taken from her secretary.
This way, she doesn't keep journal. This day, no appointments.
No visitors.

She wants people to call her Sucky and they do.

At the girls' bathroom, in highschool, Sarah told her a joke:
What do you call an Alabama farmer with a sheep under each arm?

A pimp.
