driven to madness
with the means to
self destruct
to bring down the beast
once and for all
drugs until i drop down low
low
low
and lower still
slide down into narcotic abyss
fade to black
my brain oozing around
the sights and sounds
engulfing the information
in slick jelly sludge
breaking it down
into small edible particles
right now
i am nothing
i am not human
i’ve amassed no wealth
built no legacy
i cling to imagined glories
playing episodes of dreams never aired
starved and half crazed
sacred flesh has failed me
exchanging lost gods
for the worry of reason
all in the lurid pursuit
to be part
of something
