Home Trepanation Kit

This city has a ceiling of luminescent slate the color of new concrete. It seems within reach, but in fact just clears the tallest buildings. Being completely featureless, the eyes can't focus on it, but it knows we're here.

And it doesn't fucking care.

I woke staring up into this unchanging expanse, though I didn't know it. I clearly remember building a nest of trash in the corner of the third level in my favorite parking garage, and I assumed I was staring, eyes unfocused, at the close ceiling. I soon realized, however, that the characteristic parallel scrapes of truck antennas was missing. Also, no-one had attempted to park on me yet.

Waking up on top of a 12 story building with no roof access always fucks me up. The firement were nice, but a little bewildered. I managed to skulk off before anyone thought to press trespassing charges.

I've been wearing this suit for 8 days now, and I think it might be starting to show. I should probably go home and change sometime in the next few days if I still have my keys.
