My name is ‘Nobody’

Hi there,
pleasure to meet you,
famous teens.

“hah”

My name is nobody.
I live
in the city of lights,
fashion,
cheese,
delicious cuisine,
and that long piece
of steel, they call it
“Eiffel tower.”

I live right underneath it,
“Right over there.”

Yeah, I forgot
to mention that
I am a drug addict.

I stick needles
in my arm
and follow
every other vein
until it’s clogged.

I don’t care much
about my living
situation
or my fucking life.

Fuck you,
if you feel
pity for me.

I don’t need your pity.
I need my money.
