that I invited you for my interview,
which would involve me asking...

If You'Re Like Me
Fear of Climate Success
If you're like me,
which probably already reduces the size of my captive audience
to Zero,
Regardless,
if we're like we used to be

with all the potential integrity neurons
of the uniting universe,
Through childhood...

Breathing Easier
Ego hears SuperEco's universal exhalation,

even through dissonant death's hypothermic double-hinged boundary,
