Então estava repassando pelas minhas anotações de História do Pensamento Econômico e encontrei a história de um ratinho. O ratinho me remeteu mnemonicamente a este texto.
E qual é a história do ratinho, pergunta o leitor ávido por conhecimento. Respondo.
Não sei o nome do ratinho, mas chamá-lo-ei de Ittennaig. Ittennaig foi criado por cientistas. Os cientistas colocaram um eletrodo junto ao hipotálamo de Ittennaig. O eletrodo era operado por um botão que quando pressionado fazia com que o primeiro soltasse uma descarga elétrica no hipotálamo de Ittennaig. A descarga elétrica provocava em Ittennaig sensações de prazer intensivo instantâneas.
Ittennaig passava todo o tempo apertando o botão. Morreu de inanição. Ittennaig desperdiçou o resto do seus dias viciado em um prazer vazio.
Ainda bem que pessoas e ratos são diferentes.
São?

I went out walking
Through streets paved with gold,
Lifted some stones of the skin and bones
Of a city without a soul.
I went out walking
Under an atomic sky,
Where the ground won’t turn and the rain it burns
Like the tears when I said goodbye.
Yeah, I went with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering.
I went drifting
Through the capitals of tin,
Where men can’t walk or freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in.
I stopped outside a church house
Where the citizens lack to sit,
They say they want the kingdom
But they don’t want God in it.
I went out riding
Down that old eight lane,
I passed by a thousand signs
Looking for my own name.
I went with nothing,
But the thought you’d be there too
Looking for you.
I wet out there
In search of experience
To taste and touch and to view as much
As a man can before he redempts.
I went out searching
Looking for one good man
A spirit who would not bend or break
Who would sit at his fathers right hand.
I went walking
With a bible and a gun
The word of God laid heavy on my heart
I was sure I was the one.
Now Jesus, don’t you wait up
Jesus I’ll be coming home soon
I went out for the papers
Told her I’d be back by noon.
Yeah, I left with nothing
But the thought you’d be there too
Looking for you.
Yeah, I left with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering.
