Reinforcement
"Reinforcement"

He owns no --
Repertoires
No methods
Of positive
Means --
To receive
Positive  --
Reinforcement
So he plugs --
Negative means
Into the formula
To receive --
Positive
Reinforcement
It doesn't
  PRODUCE
What he
  WISHES
What he
  BARELY
KNOWS --
  How to
  Wish for
What he's --
  Forgotten
And never --
  Learned
He lives --
In fantasy
He lives --
In fantasy
He becomes --
The idiot jester
Of the victim's --
Revelry circus
Ah, this was --
  KNOWN
This was --
  KNOWN
  FORETOLD
So long ago!
