Idiotic hangups
that foil progress: refusing
to smear baby mouths
into cesarean vulvas
and anuses to seed
guardian microbiomes;
yucking the idea
of guiding (in latex), even
just chaperoning,
ham-fisted sex between
adults too low-functioning
to go at it safely.
“We need books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us.”—Kafka (against the safe-space cancel culture pushed by anti-art bullies, left and right)
