Excerpt from the text:
“Recipe for the Love Handles”
My elevator speech
Missile guidance system
$150,000
For art
Is too cheap
Pony up
This train is leaving
@SpaceX
Offering Elon
The Rocket Brain
With laser focus
He requests a design
For a desk
Almost but not quite
Mortality
A game changer
At species level
Lets go
The Rocket Brain
Doesn’t need to know
Where its going
Curious how things
Go or don’t
A hero
On the playa
Invisible
Must be wonderful
To be invisible
Sunny day blue sky
bitcoins, corn syrup
Love handles
Sweet
