This slime has been sitting under the bridge for a year. It used to be green and slowly became other colors, but now, it’s iced over. It makes me realize that in the city, no one keeps anything clean and no one makes the sidewalks safe. Someday, someone is going to slide on the slime. And then, they will realize that it’s there. Like me. I think about the slime all of the time. It haunts me.
