repetitive impulses of cascading pleasure
old habits reminding us why we hooked up at alpha
one good thing deserving another and so on

satisfaction guarantees demand we remain loyal consumers
evolution requires social intercourse
biology craves nourishment

these bodies and their appetites were imposed on us
it’s this way or no way
and no easy way out

it’s a system of our own devising
we dreamt it up while we were sleeping
now we cannot wake up until we redesign ourselves

         we can do it from memory
