>>So Sigmund, why do we all like Saddam so much?
I can't speak for Lawrence or for you guys, but ...
Today I received my diagnosis:
My anti-ego connects
to my will-to-live
by a type of elan vital
that uses rage and the blues
to express short-term desire
as products of the imagination
which heighten self-discipline
when my Vitamin-B level
drops to the point that
I have to dance all night.
As a result, seizing opportunities
triggers indecisive parti pris
or false exterioception
when a simple yes-or-no would do
or assertive foreknowledge
make relaxing an art.
In no uncertain terms I was told
either to try to worry more
or lapse into iconic
states that trigger
poetic indicants of narcissism
which can only be ameliorated
behaviorally--which is to say
not at all--in the grudging
awareness of undiagnosed others.
