THE HOUSE OF ZAN — Zan
“This whole world’s wild at heart and weird on top.”
— Wild at Heart
Some desires sound worse out loud than the choices that follow them.
An urge can be rough.
A fantasy can ignore every boundary.
Neither has touched another person.
Reality brings somebody else’s answer.
It may be no.
Wanting does not become permission because it feels honest.
Control is not the absence of appetite.
It appears when impulse meets a limit.
Consent can keep the scene wild without turning another body into a decision already made.
Someone may imagine taking everything.
They can still accept only what was offered.
An uncivilized thought can expose desire.
What follows says more about character.
