CAN YOU BELIEVE PEOPLE STILL USE A WORD LIKE 'NORMAL'?

aren't you pleased now

I've taken away the anger?


(people don't like anger...

it makes them nervous


especially when it reminds them

of their culpability)


aren't you pleased

the reasonable me has returned


after a rest from the thing

the world does to keep us on edge


and calls it normal?

aren't you pleased we're not normal


(whatever evasion that is?)

and enjoy an edgy peace without end?
