PALE SOLILOQUY
LOOK AT ME! LOOK HOW PALE I AM! YES, PALE! LOOK! I’M SO PALE! LOOK HOW PALE I AM! I’M PALE AND NEW. I’M SHINY. I’M PALE AND NEW AND SHINY. LOOK! I’M SO VERY PALE; I’M PALER THAN ANYTHING. MY SKIN IS SO PALE. I’M SUCH A WONDERFUL PALE PERSON. PALE! LOOK AT ME! I’M SO VERY VERY PALE. I’M HAPPY TO BE TELLING YOU HOW SO VERY PALE I AM. AND I’M GLAD YOU’RE LOOKING AT ME AND LISTENING TO ME TELL YOU HOW PALE I AM. I’M PERFECT, SPOTLESS. NOT A DROP OF DIRT, FILTH, OR EXCRETEMENT HAS MARRED MY PRISTINE EXPANSE. I EMIT NO ODOR. WHEN YOU LOOK AT ME YOU SEE NOTHING BUT ME, AS I AM NOT FOGGY OR UNFOCUSSED. I AM SHARP AND PRECISELY DEFINED. THERE SHOULD BE NO CONFUSION IN YOUR MIND WHAT IS ME AND WHAT IS NOT ME. I AM PALE AND NOTHING STAINS ME. NOTHING SOILS ME. NOTHING GETS IN MY WAY. I’M SO PALE THAT EVEN WHITE THINGS LOOK GRAY AND BLOTCHY NEXT TO ME. THEY NEED AN EXTRA WASH OR TWO. THEY NEED BLEACH. NOW YOU CAN SEE HOW OLD AND WORN OUT WHITE THINGS ARE. NEXT TO ME THEY’RE NOTHING. THEY MIGHT AS WELL BE BURIED IN SHIT AND PISS AND VOMIT. YOU YOURSELF MIGHT AS WELL BE BURIED IN SHIT AND PISS AND VOMIT BECAUSE YOU’LL NEVER BE AS PALE AS I AM. YOU’RE NOT PALE. LOOK AT YOURSELF. LOOK HOW FILTHY YOU ARE. LOOK. FILTH. NOT LIKE ME. I’M PALE. I’M PALE. I’M PALE.
