why i am so stupid

"'Cause I used to live
In a fuzzy dream
And I wanted to be
Like all the pretty people" -- Madonna

cf.

The happiness of my existence,
its unique character perhaps,
lies in its fatefulness:
expressing it in the form of a riddle,
as my own father I am already dead,
as my own mother I still live and, grow old.
[...]
I am gifted with an utterly uncanny instinct of cleanliness;
so that I can ascertain physiologically
that is to say, smell
the proximity, I may say, the inmost core,
the "entrails" of every human soul.
