and you’re in this for what…love…sex…aspirations of greatness…forget it..this is out of your jurisdiction…this cannot be controlled…only you can prevent forest fires…right…

but…you say this can be done…these dreams made of fairy dust at midnight…go ahead…be my guest.. I’m not gonna’ watch…a man being slaughtered is not in my interest…never has been…

you…you’re different…see things maybe that I don’t..hell…maybe I don’t wanna’ see…ever think ah that.. maybe this deal…this cooked-up notion in your head is just that…a half-baked deal only you have…not the rest of us…

think about it my friend…nobody else is carrying a torch…not a one of us is thinking of future engagements…just the here and now…that’s clarity…yes…clarity…

so…go ’bout this business of happiness…see how far it’ll getcha…I’ll take that action..what’d you say…

you make the call….
