I look at life like a train-wreck
In slow motion
And reversed
So horrible
Yet it slowly looks better
Oh it never is
Yet you pretend
A video in reverse
Does not change the end
How amazing
To look to the past with such fondness
To pretend
This train has not already derailed
Oh to be addicted
Always to the most dangerous things
Addicted to dying
Needing to live
The human condition
It’s charges as slaves
