POETRY
Never Ignorant of Getting Goals Accomplished
Oedipus Jones
I want
To drink coffee without any ulcers,
To smoke without worry of cancer,
To take drink in excess with no consequences
Physical or social,
To read think and write (almost) exclusively,
Confound reason and commonsense,
And plague the collective unconscious with my contemptible whims.
I will achieve a literal immortality
And die by my own hand.

Interesting piece, it made me stop and think, and then I gave it a second read to soak it in. :) I like the rhythm also.
