Being and Becoming
The honor a man bore when he crushed an opponent
is considerable agitation for revoking altogether the
exciting story about a heterosexual romance rather than one
foreign and religious. Purgatory was a word he could
tangle from the staghorns of the hatrack. Jimmy picked
career-sabotaging headlines about infidelity, divorce, legal trouble
seeing films, correcting essays, and occasionally chatting with
somebody who wanted to fail. That's the only sublime thing
drowned out by the angry mob's continued protests that the festival
tried every means possible to expend the energies that
smoke a crumbling cigarette, holding a finger over the torn
organizations that started ostensibly as social groups.
