To get what we want, of course, or
To avoid what we don't
In service of a good story,
Better regard,
Or to best some enemy
To paint a picture that leads others
To our desired destination
To feel as though we have some control
When we know we don't
In the hope of real connection, even if
Made inherently unreal by lying
Because we don't think it matters, or
That anything matters
To delight, to entertain, to create worlds
Or maybe just
To ameliorate boredom
