Crystallized

I live everyday looking to the next remedy, I scrimp and thieve, here and there, every one counts, I just need the next one. Doing what I thought I never would, I steal, dive and flatback. I scan the isles buying some, stealing others. I build it from simple items, baked by my own hand. My kitchen is everywhere, hidden from sight. It goes where I go. I travel freely, from here to there. All my bridges burnt. I silently watch as the pigs go by. I lite another, enjoying the hard sensation. as it courses through me. Lazily, I drift off to sleep. Only to reawaken the next day, in my persistent abyss.
