    My eyes stung hot magma
    The day I decided to get over you
    Destoying every last bit of proof
    That could concur there was ever anything there
    The memories still sit like mucky puddles
    So I close my eyes and focus
    On the walk to work
    The latest book I'm reading
    Some stupid neon sign
    I noticed while buying fruit
    At a sinisterly overpriced market
    I still don't eat much
    Get headaches
    Wake up crying
    Walk into hazy trappings
    I've got to destoy it all
    To save my sanity

    Raising the Chalice of the Wine of Life, I mutter "To Defeat!" and drain it at a gulp. :)

    the neon sign/market/fruit reminded me of ginsbergs poem, supermarket in california (or something)-- but it's quite good, indeed. <3.
