Men Are But A Distraction


Sitting in a black hole

Surrounded by own warmth

A single light 

That may or may not be mine

A distraction

An object

Hundreds of objects

Various different kinds 

Which should I choose

Which might I be allowed to have

But no

Nevermind

I am not supposed to touch the flowers

Their scent is intoxicating 

And full of bullshit
