obsessions
I can be obsessive. For instance, last night I needed a command hook.
My mind couldn’t focus on “Principles of Biostatistics,” as fascinating as that book is, because I needed this $3 command hook to hang my keys by the door.
There’s a table by the door, I could easily put my keys there, but no. That’s

Raw Obsessions
The penchant of a national leader.
can show malignancy in things he says;
things for which his mind needs a proof-reader.
Some tempers malign as rivals start to quiz
Views have drawn the cancer, cacoethes.
A writer’s mania – cacoethes scribendi -
appears when terrorists write a manifesto.
Do over-engaged minds stage what’s trendy?
obsessive was the groove of the fluent

Fleeting Obsessions
We're so keen, so obsessed,
We're tired, so fed up.
Disgusted, disappointed, and anguished,
Yet we proceed, we go on.
Afraid of giving up,
Bound by chains,
Chains of our loves and faith and desires,
In a cage of our own feelings.
Our minds can wander far,
Yet remain imprisoned within ourselves.
We don't seek relief,
We just tell ourselves: go on, go on.
Until our hearts

Obsessed By My Obsessions
Obsessed by my obsessions
to point of being swept away
If only I were capable
of living a different way
Despite all of my pleadings
seems no matter how hard I pray
This driving force of focus
still define’s my life today.

Absurd Obsessions
It may have been gradual,
But once I did get obsessed.
I would ask myself,
Why must my shadow
Follow me? What did I do wrong?
Seemed to me the darker the shadow became
The more evil I had committed.
Now I am no saint, but surely
I could not have been that bad!!
Still that miserable shadow
Would follow me everywhere.
It would

Mine Courtship With Deadly Obsessions
Mine courtship with deadly obsession(s)
still indelibly scored within
windmills of my mind
this July 22nd, 2020.
Imagine yours truly post pubescence
(no matter ye never met me)
all that life in front of me
argh... precious time squandered
abustle with rattle and hum of compulsions
slavishly buzzfeeding pet peeves.
Anorexia nervosa ranked
as thee moost detrimental
upon cusp of prepubescence
I metaphorically teetered
and tottered on the

Some people are prisoners of obsessions
It matters not how they attempt it to shun
Takes over their soles
Losing control
It's a battle I know because I was one

Dual Obsessions: Santorini And You
Dreaming of us walking in warm, sandaled feet.
Between alabaster white stucco homes on a narrow
street in Greece.
Sun, so graciously blessing our love.
Families have aquamarine shutters on the windows,
to have their privacy.
Ahead~a lovely white bench for us, just a few more feet
away.
To cool ourselves beneath

Often Oppossed To Obsessions
Often Oppossed to Obsessions
Often have been opposed to obsessions;
And then you must obtain more sessions,
Thought needed,
Never impeded,
Of constant concentration on confessions.

Obsessions
I’ve become dangerously obsessive and it’s starting to cause pain
Not on others, boy I wish, but I’m all theres to blame
It’s tearing me up, my mind is rot, it’s not aesthetically pleasing
For certain obsessions only inspire devilish laughs and teasing
If only it was classic symbols my mind hungrily wants
Looking glasses, chess and clocks, all

Rigid Code of Obsessions
wheel ding utmost pro lix:
scrum compulsions won

solar radiation from the sky didst lightly run

a weird wired wider sensation pun
knee sensation otherwise, this sun dry
