*i'm just a body reduced to talking about treadmills and counting calories, i might as well be a budgie trapped in a birdcage running the motion of carrying forward a mile, yet standing still... the famous 1980s angst against being schooled is gone with joy division and the smiths, i'm into placebo's cover version of bigmouth strikes again anyway... seriously, i'm like a modern day don quixote, but instead of windmills i'm facing adversaries that are on treadmills: keep it up and they'll turn you into hamsters powering the whole ****** gym, or that's what you should be doing, don't get me wrong, i used to pump iron on the weights for sex-appeal... **** me did that prove to be a farce: bulimia didn't feel roman empire rite of passage enough; but i'll admit, squash is a funnier version of tennis, it's like two people playing a one-man game of hitting a ball against the wall.* darwinism isn't really an existential anaesthetic, it's like a cancer given the body is a history, thanks to darwinism we're all berry foragers in a forest of whims and pampering of exacting circa; i just loathe this objectivity of cool being implanted in me: so why would i pre-date cloning with analogous generics of feeling to make me into a bog-standard mr. smith?!
