    Addiction
    Clawing, tearing, ripping
    from the depths of my soul
    Deadly desire grips my heart
    as I faintly fight for control
    Lovely, blinding numbness
    I desperately grasp for
    Beautiful distraction floods my mind
    refusing to allow me to focus
    Torn between craving and sobriety
    I keep slipping closer to the edge
    Begging for final release
    I repeat the cycle yet again

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
