Impotence

Thus,

whereas ignorance is
false, unjustified belief
or the lack of belief
however true or justified
it may be,

impotence is
wrong, illegitimate desire
or the lack of desire
where it would be
right and legitimate.

If we are powerless, this is why.
We are oppressed by forces
that rob our bodies of just desire
or rob our desires of legitimacy.
