Redaction Comics #1
You want me to identify and describe the seven confusions for you,
or I want you to want me to,
but I won't. I can't, or I could but I won't,
or I could and it wouldn't matter,
wouldn't help, wouldn't change anything.

Someone wants me to observe and explicate the operation,
but I am not going to do it
because the process is opaque or
because the process is complicated and uninteresting
or because I lack the interest, the time, the motivation.

I want you to clarify the system for me,
but you aren't going to do it,
aren't even going to bother to refuse to do it,
because it doesn't matter to you that I don't matter to you.
