like a guppy in a swimming pool

i like the loss of identity what comes with livin in a city. i've decided this after thinkin back over my 'big issue' project. no-one nos you and no-one wants to or gives a fuck about you cause there to busy rushin round drinkin starbucks (this bothers me cause i'd rather lick a dead cat than drink the dishwater they serve at that place)....you can just dissapeer and no-one will notice. this means you can get away with more stuff. but also you have fuck all clue about the millions of people what have stood in the exact same places what you have.....

...its like theres millions of invisible footprints, fingerprints, all nameless, faceless and no-one will ever no. it sort of reminds me of a poem they tried to make me read at school by Carol Ann Duffy(a crazy scottish lesbian whos poetry is amazin) called 'stealing'. its not like a small town where everyone nos you and your bussiness....if you fuck up, no-one nos except you and you can jus try agen tommorow. sort of like little fish in a fuckin massive pond, like a guppy in a swimming pool if you will.

namelss, faceless and just another dot in a sprawlin city. love it.

thinking about loss of identity, i had a mate once what burnt his hands to try n get rid of his fingerprints cause he'd got nicked for robbin a car the year before. it would be pretty sound havin no fingerprints but i sort of like fingerprints so maybe not so good. i'v always wonderd how they no that no 2 sets of fingerprints am the same....has someone checked every single persons fingerprints out of all the 6 billion people on this earth?!!? poor sod - i wouldnt like there job!
