we stumble upon patterns, these are
universal, where one meets deviance. for most people, life is certain
ingredients, a little nutmeg, or tarragon, or a bit of paprika. life is hereby
defined. while pepper causes sneezing, and cayenne is too fiery. we have
appetites, or enclosures, or concrete predilections. other essences are
curious, but outside of us, while breakage causes new preferences. I speak with
reserve. because there are anomalies. where many people don’t fit the paradigm.
what to give a cobra, or a dragon, or a predator? (there is something to this
question.) we might select our own, or we might desire something totally
opposite of ourselves. a class A person might need something a bit more class
B. this becomes offensive, or even classist, but bear with me (for we realize
people are different). with a class B person, there might be more humility,
even appreciation—or a tendency to adapt to one’s personality. whereas, another
class A person might require more than they give. (we move into differences, or
contentions, where most need genuine affection). one is always judging. we seem
to have evolved this way. where one must respect the other’s patterns. one will
enjoy some habits, contend with others, but hopefully, enjoy the entire
package. (it brings us to upbringing, even the braiding of talents, where one
meets a person by feeling inferior. to need her love. to need her approval. if
but to validate the poet.) indeed. so sickening, so distasteful, but each
person must recollect. it’s not easy to be charming, where some are naturals,
while this trait is troublesome. but among colleagues, in our darker regions,
charm is necessary. no one trait speaks. it’s usually a combination. where a
person makes a decision. we never realize capacity. as to adore someone we
misunderstand. or to lose self in some sea-cave. as to imagine love, so
dependent upon innocence, or so evolved one is an outcast. our naïve
perception. our easygoing acceptance. if or only if we fit the category. slight
effects. or stimulated affectation. or something hinging on abusive patterns.
