lesser of the two
nothing sums up a
quitter like s/he who
invests themselves in
“the lesser of two evils,”
bathing themselves in
supposed pragmatism,
walking with an illusion
of certainty that when
faced with two choices,
rather than demand a
third, or demand to
have a different system of
choosing altogether, or
even more, to throw up
the whole puzzle in the
air to watch it come crashing
down into blissfully
destructive & completely
deserved chaos, it is
more “appropriate” to
cave, queue up &
follow in line, one step
in front of the other off the
conveyor belt & into the
meat grinder, in hopes
that the safe little world
of comfort in which
one dwells will not be
upset.
