looking at the people, with all their faces, legs, arms, shirts, ******* hairs and eyes. I see a million different flavors of the same thing but in practice you cannot prove my theory down to the tiniest strand of DNA, or smallest molecule of amino acids, or even the minuscule atoms of carbon or oxygen, I am absolutely right but in the large term, in the space where you are greater than the sum of your parts, I find that we are so much more than atoms or molecules or DNA we are destined to live every day for our lives but we have since passed that stage (at least for now) and ascended to the plateau of higher thought and a meaning to life other than survival what can I do to deny woman? what can I do to deny man? they are so compelling, even in their idiocy and (my more Darwinist side says) should be given no pity but I feel the fire of human interaction deep inside me to hate, to love, to loath, to want, to need, to feel, to be there for your friends, your enemies, or your people I feel the fire deep in my heart, deep in my mind, deep in my groin It’s there and burning on the fuel of my darkest and inner-most thoughts. It’s there and (slowly) burning away my soul
