LIMITLESS DESIRES, LIMITED RESOURCES.

when the father in the video store
said no, Small, Sweet Children,
you can't get THE LION KING 2,
we're getting CARNOSAUR
from the "BLOOD!!!!" section
but thanks for coming out and voting,
i swelled with "Incalculable Rage"
though in retrospect it feels less like
a holy fire and more like
a letter to the editor
fire.

which is pretty much probably the worst
kind of fire there is, next to forest fire.
enemy fire. friendly fire. orphanage fire?

FORGET QUALIFICATIONS the point
is that at least it kept this humble house warm,
for five minutes. the Rage. at least.

he didn't pause, though. seriously,
confidence
conviction
where do people
get these things. am i eating the wrong
breakfast cereals?

though personally if i had to choose between
confidence
conviction and
kix.

confidence, conviction, carnosaur and
kix.

personally basically tragically i'd choose
kix
every time.¹


1. is this confidence/conviction/kix thing a metaphor for how that 'ssri' made you numb in the genitals and you stopped taking it?²

2. i didn't think of that, but yeah.  probably.
