Addicted To Chance Gigan

It sort of feels like what’s blurry is real,
roses and death’s-head moths breeding.

Oh magic mirror hanging on the wall,
please rid my mind of contamination.
Thick fog creates distorted verities. 

Right becomes left and left is now right.
I must win this fight, confusion is war.

Second guesses, incomplete sentences 
on purpose an important bite left out.

In a flat spin with your hands held up,
it sort of feels like what’s blurry is real.

Right becomes left and left is now right,
without a compass I’m completely lost.
Magic mirror allow me to see my path. 

Better yet leave my future scrambled,
there’s an addictive quality to chance.
