Man's Will To Do Good

Apendix 5
subsection 4
3rd paragraph
2nd quadrant

read your contract

list of how its not working
so you can work things out

if this is man's will to do good
what are we here for but to work on this
what is the test
as good as it gets
focusing on
an attempt to fail
to stack the deck of our own fate
teach ourselves familiar succesfull patterns

reach out to learn the new things to broaden
expected challenges foreshadowed by everything being eventual
why does
everyday
have to be
my own worst nightmare
life in the gutter
no escape as easy as disturbing as the soul's misery

kept back for ages
the grudge
man's will to do good
read your contract
subsection 2 
fourth index
3rd paragraph

desribe this to me and live through me vicariously
