Chemical Enlightenment

 Found my name on the page of an open book.

My author speaks to ink

the atmosphere of “how could you?”

I wish I could break through.


So dreadful dead indulgence said

I’ll kill you in the end.

Dreadful dead indulgence sells

your name for dividend.

Chemical Enlightenment, history

can’t you see sinking self esteem descend

into the waves of my demise?


Where weaknesses face a floating ego,

where nobody seems to see-

where nobody seems to see me sinking

in a sea of my convictions.

In desperate need of guidance

greater than my vision,

greater than my mission.


I am trapped on the page of an open book.

I wish I could break through.

My burdens become bigger than the world

which values my point of view.
