I wrote this poem years ago. It perfectly describes how I feel tonight.
Feed The Beast
This isn't how it works
I tell myself
Not the way it's gone before
What used to set me free
Does not release me
Instead beguiles me
Tell me, please, am I insane?
Einstein's quote does not apply
Same actions always yielded
Satiation, calm and rest
Expecting something different
Would be crazymaking stuff
Something here has gone awry
Same actions are resulting
In a hunger deep and wide
Demanding to be fed
To be acknowledged, satisfied
I'm puzzled and confounded
Yet without question I comply
To be finally consumed
By this desire bound inside
