The Loneliest Job in the World
by Tony Hoagland
As soon as you begin to ask the question, Who loves me?, you are completely screwed, because the next question is How Much?, and then it is hundreds of hours later, and you are still hunched over your flowcharts and abacus, trying to decide if you have gotten enough.

The real truth: I’m supposed to be saying these things to you. Not to a computer. Not to all of my friends and a few strangers. You deserve better.

I’m quite afraid of this hope. I’m quite afraid to believe. I’m quite afraid to play the fool and to fall under -alone: withoutyou. Us (two) Divided by a word the one gone unheard. Believe in me.
