      "For

      "two
      beasts

      each

      The
     
     
      idea
      of
      true
      love
      is
      a
      false
      one,
      and
      if
      it
     
     
      were
      true...
      good
      fucking
      luck
      finding
      that
     
     
      one
      person
      in
      the
      sea
      of
      millions.
      Ha!
      You
     
     
      would
      die
      poor
      and
      lonely,
      you
      wretched
     
     
      fool!
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Is
      your
      love
      something
      special?
     
     
      Maybe
      to
      you.
      For
      now.
      But
      guess
      what?
     
     
      You
      may
      love
      your
      love
      forever,
      but
      the
     
     
      initial
      passion...
      well,
      the
      initial
      passion
     
     
      will
      not
      last,
      and
      your
      relationship
      will,
      in
     
     
      time,
      collapse
      into
      a
      Sunday
      drive:
      a
      mere
     
     
      comfortability.
      It
      will
      no
      longer
      be
      that
     
     
      fiery
      band
      of
      raging
      mountains
      and
      valleys

      be
      battled
      and
      triumphed
      over,
      |
     
     
      but
      simply
      a
      long,
      unending
      vastness
      of
     
     
      flat,
      smooth,
      dispassionate
      land.
      When
     
     
      your
      desire
      to
      possess
      another's
      love
      has
      ~
     
     
      been
      sated,
      what
      more
      is
      there
      to
      desire?
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Useless
      Facts
     
    
   
   
    
     
      So
      just
      wait
      for
      possession
      to
      be
     
     
      accomplished,
      wondering
      what
      there
      will
     
     
      be
      left
      to
      do
      at
      that
      time.
      There
      will
      be
     
     
      nothing
      but
      to
      sit
      and
      hold
      on
      to
      it,
      to
      hold
     
     
      to
      your
      most
      coveted
      of
      possessions.
      It
     
     
      may
      be
      sick,
      sad,
      and
      cynical,
      but
      love...
     
     
      yes
      love,
      is
      possessive.
     
    

    
     
      Do
      you
      wish
      to
      lose
      your
      free-
     
     
      dom?!
      I
      have
      an
      idea!
      Fall
      in
      love.
      Fall
      in
     
     
      love
      and
      hand
      your
      emotional
      controls
     
     
      over
      to
      someone
      else
      and
      let
      them
      play
     
     
      with
      the
      joystick.
      You
      can
      make
      a
      deal;
     
     
      "T'll
      give
      you
      mine
      if
      you'll
      give
      me
     
     
      yours."
      Perhaps
      it
      will
      work,
      but
      just
      try

      individuality,

      And
      here
      is
      Valentine's
      Day,
      a
     
     
      nice,
      profitable
      way
      to
      institutionalize
     
     
      love;
      today
      you
      will
      show
      your
      love,
      you
     
     
      will
      buy
      material
      objects
      with
      symbolic
     
     
      meaning,
      material
      objects
      which
      means
     
     
      nothing
      at
      all
      except
      to
      act
      as
      proof
      of
      the
     
     
      shallowness
      of
      the
      day
      of
      love.

      Cupid's
      arrow
      has
      a
      string
     
     
      attached
      to
      it!
      Where
      does
      it
      lead,
      and
     
     
      what
      if
      you
      don't
      follow?
      You
      are
      not
      a
     
     
      good
      lover.
      But
      you
      do
      not
      love
      the
      other
     
     
      anyway,
      you
      love
      your
      desire
      to
      possess,
     
     
      and
      once
      you
      possess...
      but
      why
      possess?
     
     
      To
      maintain
      the
      status
      quo
      of
      love.
      "Love
     
     
      me
      forever!"
      you
      cry,
      for
      you
      want
      a
      last-
     
     
      ing
      love,
      a
      stability.
      Stability
      is
      over-rated.
     
     
      Happy
      Institutionalized
      False
      Love
      Day.
