OKAY. DO YOU WANT 'SECS'?
RUNNERS HAVE VERY SHORT TEMPERS.

Meh.
The composition is jejune at best.
And is it neo-Marxist or a self-conscious parody of neo-Marxism?
I'd say it fails on both counts.
At best, I'd say we're looking at postmodern blather.
Neither avant-garde nor revelatory in its scope.
YOU SHOULD NOT BE WRITING A GUIDE TO PARENTING.
BUT LITTLE KIDS NEED GUIDANCE.
HEY, KID, DON'T QUIT YOUR DAY JOB.
