needle trap in a skin labyrinth 

addiction lingers in the silhouette
while i slowly try to find a clean way
out of the maze pounces on me
strikes me in the weak 

potent contagious high cycles
from my brain to my nervous
sets me crossed eases me
into calm complacent sweat
flooding my body from brow
to shakened palm

conscience from above the dark
tumbles down a rope grasped in my hand a violent tug
sends me in flight over my mistakes a clear reflection
of my atrocity 

suddenly angels appear smother me with direction
shortly behind the demons walk with purpose
marching foot steps echo into edified mind

]relapse] whiplashed hooked again
greeting from your old friend memory
bind you feed you the familiar 
poisonous insignificance
