I have worked, paid bills and lost sleep.

I have kissed your blistered lips on that cold winters day having ulterior motives burned into my mind's eye.

I have overslept through the alarm and cut myself causing euphoric relief.

I have saved a few precious moments of time while ingesting large doses of L.S.D.

I have grown up in this sinking culture.

I have tried to follow your strict advice but stumbled down the wrong path.
