Consider this, my love.
This is Chicago Transit Authority 3142. It was built in 1923, and it hasn't had an easy life. It was taken out of service and used as storage shed after an accident, but ultimately that's what saved it. But it runs today, away from the noise and the traffic, and still carries people, as it was intended to do, in a sedate loop through the Illinois Railway Museum. Well, no, sweetheart.
What it indicates is that you have a maintenance staff
who work very hard, and very cleverly, to keep you going.
If you manage to achieve something like this,
it speaks to the infrastructure of care that holds you,
much more than to your own "inner perfection".

And you claim to take pride in this.
You growl and snap
at the animal bodies of humans
going unconsidered and un-cared for.
(Your own animal body is of no consequence, of course,
barely worth mentioning.)
