Deep Fixations

He had deep fixations,

And they...

...Nailed him

To the wall.

(Scrape my face

Off the grill of

Life...

...I think I'll need 

A grungy 

Butter knife...)

...Private Eye 

Delusions...

...Patterns that

Install...

Temporary 

Titillation...

...Neither recommend

The red-eyed spy,

Or the scolded

Step child...

...Every firebolt sent

To my flailing,

Fresh plucked form,

Shocked me daily

'til my husk went

Warm...

...Now I'm back

Upon the Nature

Trail...

...I'm a marked man,

As I lift my

Sail...

Deeply decided, and no

Longer dormant...

...Fixations thrive in

The hollow of the eve...

...In the night's arm-

pit,

We straighten ties,

While down the Gaza

Strip 

Everyday

They struggle hard to

Live and breathe...
