wasn't this poem the inspiration for 15 seconds of a 1970s sitcom?

'concupiscent'?

ack,

love how the last line collapses
on The Healing Species by Dovina 7 Jan 2006, 7:53 AM
love it
actually, I'd keep the last 'i can' too
delete entirely, except for the first 'i can'. makes it more vivid, action-oriented as opposed to possibility. some syllables may need to be tweaked to optimize rhythm of course
very funny.
are all those 'i cans' really necessary?
