The Mindless Over-Indulgence

Drugs

A thoughtless routine

Repeated deafness of ones mind

Souls binding into a place of respite

I am not fine

Rough and coarse are my fractured nerves

Epitome of my new age rapture

Placed on my tongue and swallowed with the plunge of inhalation

These grainy chemical burns stand out on the skin

Dripping with jealousy saggy eyes turn up the volume on pleasure

Artificially.

“That’s what happened while you were gone?”

She put her head in her hands and poured tears onto her new blouse

“I don’t understand it.”

“Let’s get FUCKED up!”

Murder this habit,

It’s only the road to unfulfilled dreams and lonely nights.
