Guilty Gear

It's like death but sweeter It's freezing by the heater It's narcissism, fanaticism, And folly on a cake It's like steel but tougher I've got acid but no buffer It's cynicism, pessimism, And idiocy in a shake It's like mucus but putrid It's milk and booze diluted It's nihilism, optimism, And ignorance in a pie It's like sugar but sour It's drowning in the shower It's like having happiness and sorrow Impaled into your eyes

Surely guilt is all of these things, Christopher. Your words are well chosen in this poem.
