nothing so ridiculoiusly teenage and desperate
nothing so childish
at a better pace
slower and more calculated
no chance of escape
now self-employed (his own man is_)
concerned (but powerless)
an empowered & informed member of society (pragmatism not idealism)
will not cry in public
girlfriends and wives
less chance of illness
tyres that grip in the wet (shot of baby strapped in back seat)
clean shaven
a good memory
still cries at a good film
still kisses with saliva
no longer empty and frantic
like a cat
tied to a stick
that's driven into
frozen winter shit (the ability to laugh at weakness)
calm
fitter, healthier and more productive
a pig
in a cage
on antibiotics
