Nick Sax in “What Smiles Are For”

Listen, Unicorn!...Listen, unicorn. This is not the imaginary world. This is the real world. And it's messy. And people do a lot of things they're not very proud of - ordering this breakfast, for one. But I'm gonna soldier through. And when I'm done, I'm gonna get into that hideous automobile in front and I'm gonna punch my ticket outta here, leaving this cold, filthy city and everything in it in my rearview mirror. Ever westward, baby. And I ain't stopping until I see that sun drop into the water.
