is it good?

in the desert
i saw a creature, naked, bestial,
who, squatting upon the ground,
held his heart in his hands,
and ate of it.
i said: "is it good, friend?"
"it is bitter-- bitter," he answered;
"but i like it
because it is bitter,
and because it is my heart."

Stephen Crane

dude. i miss you and your antics of a wrestling monkey advanced beyond the other primates yet not human or else i wouldn't have called it monkey, but not in support of any evolutionistic theory, so monkey but more than one but not human but not evolution, but jack-like.
