self-worth exercise

I think it's about level-setting. Fr'
instance. You've got your self-worth. 

How much worth could a self-worth 
worth
if a self-worth could worth
worth? 

Zero, right? Bupkis! Correct!
Or at most, one - but no more
than one surely. This, folks,
really is binary - and whether
you assign it value zero or one
says only a little about you,
and nothing at all about how
integers work. How can self

Be worth to self? The only worth
it has or could, conceivably, have 

is one. 

One (1) self. 

Convenient package! 

Go with one! Forget zero 
- nobody needs one of those. 
Nobody's ever had one 
of those. If they had, they'd
have had zero of those, 
exactly. 

But - you've already got 
one. And

you don't need 
(however much you
might need another's self, 

you don't need) another one 
of self. You have all the one
you'll ever need already! 

Go for two, if so - three 
if adventurous or some-say 
perverted, but as far as the one 
you are, really, that's all the one 
you need to be or could ever 
amount to. However you work it, 

(which is all to the good or 
could be, depending) 

it's still you. One unit. Recommended 
service size: 1. 

So serve, why don't you. 
Be of some use. Put you. 
Do something, whatever 
- might as well! Could be 
fun? We're stuck here 
'til one of us dies, mate. 
Get busy living or get 
lazy lying. 

Sure, that amounts
to something, but what it doesn't
amount to is self. What you can do
with your can-do 'tude
and your know-how
amounts to all kinds of canny
or uncanny stunts, tricks
and routines, with that thing
you got, that thing, that thing.

That self you hold so yours.  
(it all runs to routines eventually,
repeated as needed) but what
we see is one: just you. So what
does the sticky and fluffy bluff
of these stupid human tricks
you do add up to mean? 
Worth-wise? That's not
about human being better! It's  
just human doing cool or tricky
moves and maneuvers. Great! 
Ta-da!

The crowd roars! 

Done! Next?

We're through?

Okay! And what are you worth 
to you after? Same same? 

Yeah, that's my take. Me too.
I tell you, I rake it in daily  
all day and it comes up one. 

So there's my level-set: self
-worth default level one (1). 

What's the fucking crisis
