    Lady Junkie

    She was once
    a lady junkie,
    with a sterling silver
    spoon....
    living inside
    her crystal ball,
    reaching for
    the moon...

    she had
    a magic wand,
    she'd fix
    into her arm...
    doing it
    for the rush,
    meaning no-one
    harm..

    well..
    she melted down
    the crystal ball,
    and could not see
    the moon...
    then there was nothing left,
    but the sterling silver
    spoon...

    we are finished when we start, each reaching for the other's heart. we are born the day we die, holding closed each other's eyes.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
