Flecks of Life

By walkersway

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You are the slow toxins I purse my lips to breathe, choking me with affection a gasp, a sting of air and an exhale soothing and poisonous at the same time you glow lightly and hiss, whispering promises of more. I am convulsive in my addiction I tap lightly illusion of flecks of white drift to the blackened grave. tap,tap repetition keeps you useful, tap,tap repetition keeps me satiated tap,tap repetition keeps my death alive you a quicken mirror of life I draw from you and sooth my creativity I draw from you and enflamed my numbness I draw from but you are no more...This is about vices.
