Abstract: This collection examines, but does not conclusively solve, a battery of problems including but not limited to existential angst, idiopathic exhaustion and unrelenting hopelessness, internal conflicts between sexual orientation and religion, external conflicts regarding sexual orientation and religion, consequent estrangements and emotional difficulties, the phenomenon of viewing the body as separate from the self, the difficulties of fraught relationships with former lovers, the drawing of parallels between the Mother of Christ and the speaker's own mother, and the errant perception of cosmic guidance in the daily activities of chickens. Results are inconclusive. There is no conclusion.
