This is ludicrous speed. |
What’s here and now and intended to be clear to the |
senses passes as a blur. |
Obsession: desire, Desire: obsession. |
I know the answer inside is fighting the |
image of beauty and security. |
I can hear it gnawing at my consciousness in the background. |
Groveling, |
unnerving, yet deaf to nonsensical ears. |
I fear why I desire. |
I understand how this all works and yet |
I’m still fixated. |
Saturday nights are just the start, a day or two into the week and I’m half way |
back. |
By the time |
I get home I’m back there again. |
I am completely aware and yet somehow I’m |
forced to the margins. |
Bench warming and there seems little chance of me getting out alive. |
A person no more. |
I watch and I watch. |
Absurd recap. |
A person no more and it feels so good it hurts. |
I watch again. |
Recapitulation. |
Worn down. |
This is not where I want to be. |
Unfamiliar mirrors. |
I wonder what has become of my life. |
The gaps in our lives seem to be so easily replenished with the products of our |
imagination, allowing ourselves |
to believe that the touched-up digital images of perfection are real and set |
the standard for beauty and truth within |
ourselves. |
But such things tend to leave a person more lonely than she was to start with as the |
bombardment of these images through entertainment and advertisements remove us even more from the rawness of life. |
