addiction
enter a dimensional orgasmic journey
woven with time and space,
bestowing you,
like crown to king,
to sacrificial momentary pleasure
at the low low price of
happiness.
ride these highs often enough to forget
that they are
plunging depths of pyrite charisma
like Ted Bundy,
like Jesus,
like the mirror when it tells you who you are.
time folds in on you like a Mobius strip
and you almost don’t notice
that you are handing over your infinite past to
the hell-bent clutches
of a lie.
you are the pride and joy of a sociopath,
your willpower the arm candy of your own misery.
there are holes in your psyche
leaking fear into your bloodstream and
you can’t live without them.
