Reinforcement

REINFORCEMENT

We are looking
All searching 
For a gear that fits
For things we won’t admit
For things that will numb our hurting
Habits collect comfort become hard to quit

Reinforcement 
Why we avoid our pain
When it is what defines us.
Gives us our true name
We should accept  it without blame
let it serve as remindings of those cowardice kings
Ruling poisonous reigns
Perpetuating the disease.
