Junky I: San Francisco 6-09-03

Pop and flush,
the plunger rushes virtual escapisms
down veins to winnow a way
across all the aqueducts of anatomy
On rolls the night train
filled to the brim of it's crystal prisms
with sanguine faces hollowed to pain
the very essence of being

Hunger without hunger
feeding only unto itself,
the needle tears asunder
an obvious vacuum in the soul
Junkie, you are horribly beautiful

... powerful write, esp. the last stanza. i know that kind of searing pain and luscious lothing; we are all hung up on some soul soothing something.
