a few people tried to be celebratory and cheery but i was as i normally am and so people quickly lost their enthusiasm and went away

one way
to try to
explain it
is to say that
when a new restaurant
comes to town and
many of the people
in the town
are excited
to try it,
the food
it offers, and
there is a line
to get in for
the first few days,
and people comment
on the food, and
some people are mean
about it and
some people are
nice about it and some
people might even tell a
version of the truth
about it, one
way to try to
explain it is to say that
i find this scenario
to be just
absolutely
heartbreaking.

does this help you
better understand?

people are here
and are not sure
why.
people are here
and it is people
who invented
the concept of
“why”.
