Fair Warning

By the way, don't pick up Augustine's Confessions
If you want something juicy. Mostly it's digressions
About God and philosophy. Now and then some facts
Of his life creep in. But it kind of lacks
Excitement. So he steals some pears
From a tree? Big deal! As for love affairs,
He has exactly two. He admits that he likes being praised,
But loves his mom, who tried to raise him Catholic.
My stomach's sick.
My eyes are glazed.
