Utopia reeked of many things;
namely, selfishness. And why not?
They were happy. All of them were happy.
But among the riches, and fame, and sex,
among bared teeth, quivering, ready tongues, and glad masses of bodies;
they were still missing each other
no end in sight and
no pride sore enough to make their poverty known.
