Somebody. Not you.
That's you. Leaving your garbage for somebody else.
2/
You figured you'd be dead, right?
You'd be dead by the time the bill came due and you wouldn't have to pay.
You were going to stiff the future for the check.
3/
The future. In your face. Bold. Brash. Pigtailed and pissed off.
You threw your trash out the window into her front yard and she caught you, got your license plate number and tracked you down. Here she is, with your garbage. Demanding you clean it up.
4/
No, you're MAD. Fucking kid. How dare she rub your nose in what a selfish son of a bitch you are, right?
THAT's what you're mad about.
That you got caught.
5/
But here she is.
Demanding you pay your own check. Boy, does that make you mad.
But that's not why you hate her.
6/
You hate her because she has the guts to face down the entire world.
You hate her, because you KNOW she's right.
Most of all, you hate her because she's from the future and she's fearless.
And you aren't.
