Beware

white heat - red hot
white heat - red hot

melting the flesh
off those who become
distracted

with eyes open
they choose to remain blind
and moth like 
they are pulled towards
the white heat - red hot
white heat - red hot

melting the flesh
off those who become
distracted.

"melting the flesh off those who become distracted." - so wise. So amazingly profoundly deep!

We can pretend to love, claim that we were sold a bill of goods, but I always prefer to think that I am at choice, even when I can't imagine how that could be true! Hey! It was shiny after all! Ha!
