That’s what they say when it’s late at night and hot as hell. You can feel your skin melt and your body shut down. You look to the night air for comfort but only find stifling, sweltering heat.

What does a snow leopard think of living in 95 degree summers? What does a giraffe think of living in sub-zero winters? What does the polar bear think of the preschool class that comes to watch it sit and wonder if it’s gonna drink a Coke? Does the zoo keeper think of the animals behind the bars or is the zoo keeper just entertaining the animals in front of the bars?

It’s all a zoo. Or maybe a circus.

If you want anything done right, you have to do it yourself. But you can’t conquer the world with a one-person army. Contradiction is the cradle of life.

Grassroots manipulation by a big conglomeration. Is anything for real? Or is all just a big show? I want to change the world. That’s what we all say. But some flash in the pan from east Texas writes a novel and makes it big on CNN, gets his 30 seconds sound byte and the world is a better place for having seen him come and go.

I still haven’t found what I’m looking for, it’s the search of today, and maybe we’ve found it and maybe we haven’t. And maybe you should just drink your Pepsi and look under the cap to see if you’re a winner.
