The Nourishing Consolation of Recognition
A voyeur’s urge to hide behind the hedge, that cedar hedge
where police officers will escort us through the side door,
would also be available, although, to avoid overexcitement,
the former dishwasher from the local grill who pops his mom’s pills
is going in and she is coming out, or vice versa. Then more waiting
maintained ownership of their recordings, received 50 percent of
chicken snoopers recording numbers on flow charts and graphs. But
that included a free three-month subscription to the magazine
and eventually those pathways will lead him to a point of intersection
and the ruins of its past industry are everywhere, as easy to eyeball as
meat-production efficiencies, and it eliminates cruelty to animals
as intoxicating and unstable as a crack habit. It is a love-hate bind.
