What Happens When the Body is The Obstacle to Humanity?

by Tristan Gevers

Everybody knows apparently
I must just be a transparency
The thing I’ve been hiding so hopelessly is
That I just want this bitch to notice me

These are words that come from the band Just Jack’s song, ‘Doctor, Doctor’. It is a feeling that most of us have experienced and can relate to. That social situation, where there is that incredible individual that may be drawing the attention of the crowd. He or she may just be drawing the attention of a few, or it may just be you. You try to catch their attention, try to be noticeable. It seems that nothing you do can catch their attention, nothing you do can get them to notice you. You keep trying.
