Marriages are held together by fear;
Fear of adversity, insecurity, shame, change
Fear of the tyranny of obligations and beliefs
And fear of facing the unknown all alone.

Democracies
Given enough life
Engender dictatorships
In order to rescue efficiency.

Disease and death
Are the two ambushers
Of unsuspecting humanity.
