On Love and Drugs
Love is a two-ton fickle
elephant, stepped on and stepped over, our blind
eyes lacking all of the things we should find useful.
Drugs are something else. They
covet our attention: whisper and caress.
While you numb
out of existence in a cloud
of billowing brain cells, I choose
to eat my spiritual experiences.
Why are we like this?

What makes or created Me and E, the cosmos, the forbidden will of the flesh, an error in our coding. The only thing that we know for sure is that we are and that we are broken, these things tend to mend though temporarily we accept that. Tight piece Boo

I would vote cosmos or errors in our coding. We may be broken, but all of our pieces make pictures, and like stained glass we allow light to filter through, highlighting our best parts. I think we manage our darkness pretty well.

good morning beautiful Eerie this is great write
perhaps we feel too much and it's frightening to us
either we don't have the one we love
or we are with the one we love in constant fear of losing it
I am very familiar with loss and it hurts deeply...
thought provoking write ❤

Change is hard. I've had to be better with going with the flow. Thanks, Brenda for a lovely comment. <3

The lockdown is a bitch. I think if you ever find someone who loves roaming graveyards at night on drugs (good drugs...taken well) then maybe there could be some kind of balance there!! Idk

It's a perfect description of the escapism while trying to understand it.
