Addict in the Mirror

When the stranger

smiles back,

I know I've gone too far.

 

Circles under my eyes

contain hours,

midnights,

and bruise my face.

 

My fingers charge,

tangle,

dance like hooked worms.

 

****** blood GO!

Pump,

push,

and fleet red channels.

 

Give me nosebleeds!

Give me tight jaw!

 

Make me haunt this room,

lost in chemical worlds

like an angel who

***** into hell

for the fun of it.
