just saying no to paternalism (includes a paternoster)
               --------------------------------------------------------

               someone told me someone told me
               someone

               that i come over
               pater
               nalistic

               but that this is
               probably nothing
               i can help

               i was stung to the quick
               yes.  to the quick.  to the
               quick.

               dear fire that burns (never forget to burn)
               this is a prayer (paternoster):

               i will come over
               only.

               i will come over
               only.

               i will come over
               only.

               only come over.
