There are many addictions
Some harmful
Some not.
Mine just happen to be coffee

Loving you, a lot....

My Life In Brief
Clouded fear
Strongest emotions
Darkest addictions
Relentless thoughts
Restless nights
Unforgiven sins
Haunting past
Unscheduled future
Inconceivable thoughts
Unimaginable regrets
That’s my life in brief....

Premium Member Under the Influence
Honey,
why do alcohol-baptized Christians
develop addictions to oil-and-gas extractive economics?

I don't know, dear.
Perhaps the same reason that THC agnostics
sprout SierraClub cooperative political memberships?...

My Fear
there's too many sickness
medicines hit or miss

stuttering over weight
addictions big debate

some can't be seen
few eyes are mean

judgments are made
they'll never fade

they'll slap a label on me
saying I shouldn't be free...

Premium Member As We Grow
As I grow older
I grow colder
but also bolder
not due to insufficiency of too quickly passing time
but just the opposite,
a growing feeling that time invites our multiculturing sufficiency
necessary for suppressing younger monoculturing addictions....

Haiku #12,073-12,075


Who's hostage to whom?
Addictions come and go, but
Boss screen runs the show.

I think of a book
Bringing therapy so free
The world would agree;

It lets you be you
Lets us pause and look around
And think of beauty.

Ill
A flash of red,
and all there is- is green,
a monster ivy,
a terrible triumph over common sense,
colored papers and metal disks,
diehard addictions,
mental conflictions,
a soul thats battered and whisked,
and made into a cake:
bred for consumption....

Fight For Peace
For all that have been written 
Are more than enough for a bulletin 
With which we all take cautions
Masks on faces turn addictions 
As we all fight for peace 
And pray for all souls deceased
Night has come this fast
Morning awaits a peaceful blast 

Hallelujah!...

Habits
Money, Greed, and lust
The sins that target us
Cheating, Lying, Stealing
Bad habits that were given
Or better yet obtained
Egos inflate the brain
Since you can not change
Your behavior can't be tamed
Your jailed if you let your bad habits and addictions control your brain...

Truth
In this cruel world, everywhere is the law
and I have been hurled, human kind made a flaw
the convictions, the afflictions, the harsh states of mind,
some are never in a bind, but to help some there's addictions
to help handle the afflictions
and to help some people unwind...

One By One
One By One

Sadness has fallen

Darkness has come

Many young lives now gone.

All families in pain

When will the addictions end. 

It steals our loved ones

Taking them to places they have never been

…We lose them...One By One…

The Outsider
Does my computer dream?
Is this puzzle what it seems?
What are a computer's dreams?
Maybe dreams exist in this machine,
The outsider in my room,
Designed to make us feel like fools,
Addictions are seductive,
Hitech savvy so productive,
A puzzle, so it seems.
Does a computer ever dream?...

Hitchhiking To Heaven
I did not promise you thick and thin
Just look at the shape your in

I’ve got road to be
Farther down

There a circus passing thru
That needs another clown

Aren’t you the one?
Cool tattoo, Bucket of rum

No restrictions on my addictions
Starting at seven and hitchhiking to heaven  . . ....

Past Addictions
I'm so fashioned to live within these walls
ever stepping into the colour of light
a mask to wear to shade my true name
cold to touch for my fingers were my veins
my knees but of raw blood and bone
how i prayed upon them for a dream
i felt the love shoot through my body
alas a pain that still lingers on...

Mirrors That Listen
Insist I didn’t exist bad to exit the mad, exhibit all that I ever had so cryptic & sad.
Delicate flesh sensitive to the touch, I wasn’t 
relevant enough to digest the dust.
Beckoning my heart in sorrow begins, apart & reckoning tomorrow it ends
In tears that mention my afflictions, to the Mirrors That Listen to my addictions....

Birth Rite
“BIRTH RITE” 


Destiny                     or? 
A genetic trap. 
Brought up to be 
Reflections of 
Absent fathers 
Insane mothers 
Raised into addictions 
That feed off each other 
Family contracted infliction 
Damned                    sick 
          Healing never 

~END~
