You're taking steps, that make you feel dizzy; Then you like the way it feels.

I couldn't eat today. No appetite.

Haven't said that phrase and meant it in years, probably.

I'd just sit there and stare at the food. After a while they'd I'd talk to them. In the emotionless fluorescent light I realise how grossly yellow the macaroni is, how shiny and glistening, plasticky, the cheese is, how flesh-coloured the chicken is, how its texture is like that of soggy sand.

Mr. Macaroni, your'e probably so fucking GMmed that if I left you on that plate for another hour, it'd get cancer.
Mr. Cheese, you ain't made of milk that's for sure. I'm placing my bets on formaldehyde and spit.
Mr. Chicken, ah, the bringer of protein, big strong muscles and whatnot. If you didn't come from some creature that moved more than 3 metres in it's whole life maybe. But now your'e nothing but sawdust, ash and fat. Not the gleaming marbly fat, but the pale and putrid stuff you get when you mix old old milk with old old lemon juice.

'But it isn't our fault, Mr. Amil, we didn't choose to be cloned and false and born in a lab. Why are you being so mean to us today? Most days you just chug us down like we're truffles and kobe.'

'Sorry guys, I'm just a little stressed. Not much though, they say I'm stronger than that, they say they can pile more on me and I'll just cope perfectly. You see? I only have this truckload of books to carry and work to do. I've even started using my school bag as a weight to work out, but it's a bit heavy for me. I'm sure my back can handle the weight, I've only had 2 slipdisks and a strained lumbar in the past week. See these bags under my eyes? They're not pitch black yet, so that means I'm not working at 100%.'

'So I guess I'll just stop whining and eat you. Maybe I'll get cancer from all the extra crap in you. You know my grandmother has cancer? That means I'm predisposed. I might die a little earlier, but what's the diff as long as I do my work for those who want me to work for them. As long as I give them a good name as long as I'm useful, no loss eh? Look! I'm not even getting paid. Rather I'm paying them! Life's good!'
