Enola Happy
I think that what happened was that we all wanted to be Oedipus and possess our mothers.
But because society frowns on such couplings,
we actually sought to BECOME our mothers.
Since only a woman can make a life,
and because our sex is opposite and we lived in a world of men,
in order to be the equal of a woman we had to take life,
And the more the better.
That cycle continued for many generations,
but in the past hundred years I think it has reached its peak at
The Ardennes
Warsaw
Hiroshima
The 38th parallel
Indochina
Haiti
Tiananmen Square
Bosnia
Iraq
At least the gross is up.
