a 20 year old console exclusive should not look this good

i add an ie in place of the y, to make it more name-like ; Miserie
it feels a bit silly looking at it in text, but it still feels ... fitting
another name for another piece of myself

i gradually begin to recognize part of myself as i ruminate on my dreams and my thoughts
a poet, whose face shows in our dark, but not darkest, moments
alongside the word misery, but as a name rather than a feeling
at first i think it uncharitable to use for this side, but she doesnt seem to mind

the people around me dont seem to know or care that something strange has occurred, barring one person who replies to my confusion by saying they felt it too
i get out of bed, use the bathroom, and start dinner
i woke up at 6 pm after all
