Slippage

a case of slippage.
where is real sanity
in rehearsed living
befuddled thoughts
search to hunt it down
it is somewhere
somewhere close
smell it, feel it, imagine it
yet you cannot describe it
amongst all that is bad
cruelty becomes love

knowing not knowing
there is no excuse
for dismal ignorance
pain is now pleasure
dominance to submissive
passions raw then tender
enjoying punishment
seeking acknowledgement
of loves desire for attention
begging unbind my heart
