Being possessed by the desire to be rich, have a mansion on the beach, be famous, be envied, that drives delusional "hits" project attempts which fail one after another.
Joe lived cheap and was condemnatious of people that worked hard and had nice things, dubbing them "materiakistic," however he worked on one project after the other trying to make it rich because he had a desire monster living in his brain.

When you meet someone and just in the presence they turn you on, There is some kind of biological chemical attraction that draws you close to them. You cant help but question everything in your life because they came around, you are super attracted to them and their mind. They make your body tingle just the thought of them kissing your neck or picking you up. You question everything in your life because you thought you had the one but they come around and change your whole world and awaken you again. They bring the real you out and inspire you. Everytime you spend time together you want to say something but havent had the chance to say it. We laugh and always enjoy time together even just for knowing eachother for a short time.
Your presence has awakened and Enigmatical Desire in me, and I can feel that you are meant for me its biological, spiritual and it all seems ridiculous but the thought of you and me makes my body go wild.
A phrase coined by the anthropologist Rene Girard to explain why your best friend is trying to steal your boyfriend from you.
Also known as triangulation of desire.

Mimetic desire, the desire for what somebody else has or wants, accounts for why I really want to go out with a guy that a lot of other girls find attractive.

A very strong feeling or attraction to a certain person sexually. It’s an urge and you can hardly control it. It’s very strong and hard to contain.

One of the most dangerous housing developments in the U.S.
Historically one of New Orleans' most crime-ridden areas, mass demolition and other efforts drastically reduced the crime occurring in the neighborhood. It was located across Florida avenue from the Florida Projects. For its deplorable condition, it was known among locals as "Dirty D". The Desire, which once had over 262 buildings, was completely torn down by 2003. Two of the original buildings were preserved for historical purposes. The area was in the midst of re-development and new construction when Hurricane Katrina inundated the historically low lying area. When it was built in 1949, several other buildings were cleared to make room, including the Hideaway Club, where Fats Domino played regular gigs. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Secretary announced that by July 2007, 100 of the eventual 500 houses would be built, as part of a development dubbed the "New Desire" or "Abundance Square".

Man 1 - Hey man, wanna come to the Hideaway Club tonight with me and the fellas?
Man 2 - I don't know about that. It's right in the Desire Projects. And you know how dangerous it is back there.
