(Poetry) A Million Eyes

I am an addict to sound, but I enjoy absolute silence,

I enjoy sight, but I close my eyes while submerged in murky water,

I enjoy rabbits, although I am allergic to fur,

I enjoy control, and the occasional loss thereof,

I’m addicted to taste, yet I am on a diet,

I am intrigued by sweet aromas, though I lack a shower,

I’m addicted to plastic, lacking the means to recycle,

I am an addict to water, resorting in my desert,

I’m addicted to rattlesnakes, but lack anti venom,

I enjoy listening, but my thoughts reside in a 30 pound bag of flour,

I enjoy contacts, but know they are prescribed,

I enjoy honey, but I realize those who produce, sting,

I enjoy bullets, but I love proof,

I enjoy the dark because it casts shadows,

I enjoy the light, when it sheds,

I enjoy the devil because he brings new meaning to fire,

I enjoy God because he brings new meaning to life,

I enjoy college, but don’t need a GPA for addressing my proficiency,

I enjoy salesmen, but I realize they are only men,

I enjoy doctors who participate in black magic and lack thereof,

I enjoy cactus for teaching me spikes come before water,

I enjoy bicycles and the ability to change gears,

I enjoy traffic, knowing it taught me when to slow down,

I’m addicted to headaches because they tell me something’s missing,

I enjoy definitions because they taught me new meaning,

I enjoy mirrors because they taught me how to reflect,

I enjoy Disney for showing me my first princess,

I enjoy Twilight Zone for teaching me morals,

I love my Mother because she gave me life,

I love my Grandma because she changed my life,

I love my friends because they influenced life,

I love my family because they grew with me,

I enjoy the government because they corrupted life,

I enjoy myself because I surpassed it,

I love my audience because they witness it and inspire,

I love all the little things about addiction and observation,

because they bring me to life!
