Demonic Disposition

Each little percussion of your
Heart’s drum centers on 
Perfection.

Apathy becomes a cold friend
On a dry day full of lethargic
Heat—sweat beads of undesired
Lust.

I am the apprentice—my master—
Spirits of unquenched probable
Addictions—demons of
Ignorance.

Fallen angel—I denounce you
Here and now.
