    Deathly Disease



    You’re a dangerous

    Disease,

    Deceitfully, destroying,

    My silky shell,

    Savagely, suffocating,

    My lightly ---lit--- lungs.



    You’re a mediocre

    Monster,

    Sinfully, searing,

    My fresh, flesh,

    With your wretched words,

    Of watered-down wisdom

    Wishfully wanting,

    Your viscous victory.



    You’re a carbonated

    Cigarette,

    Painfully, poisoning,

    My lemon lips,

    leniently, lusting,

    For one simple blow.

    You’re a blistered

    Bomb,

    Beautifully, burning,

    My hollow heart,

    Frantically, freeing,

    My sugarless soul,



    From the dangerous disease

    The mediocre monster,

    The carbonated

    cigarette,

    And the

    Blistered

    bomb.

    Full of anger and pathos.

    If you havent read Deborah Levy I suggest you do - she is really not that far above your standard but with about 30 years more experience so I think theres a lot of hope for your writing career

    There is no criticism I can offer, but I would like to say this poem is superb.
