halibut and kale over propane flame

and
now that
i have
eaten
my dinner,
i want
something
sweet.

and now that
i have
woken
from my
sleep, i want
someone
to talk
to.

and
now that i
have
greeted myself
with
fatigue,
i want
some
excitement.

and now that
i have done
tasks
labeled “work”,
i want
money.

and
now
that
i have
money,
i want
more.

and now
that
i have, i
want.
