There’s an inherent bigotry to all forms
Of insecurity: no one I would want would
Want me. None of us want to belong
To clubs that might accept us unless we first
Accept the club. Groucho Marx made a good
Joke out of inverting this: I won’t belong
To any organization that would have me
As a member. He was a member, alright.
Alright, so why want anyone or anything?
Somewhere there’s one magical human being
Who is getting by without needing human beings.
Oh, no, there isn’t. But if, but if there could be,
Why wouldn’t a merciful cosmos let it be me?
