Sometimes I feel like
Recovery is just
Forgetting the profundity of understanding my own smallness
Sometimes I feel like
My medication is just
A smokescreen blinding my mind from seeing the truth of my own futility
Sometimes I feel like
Relapsing is just
Taking a moment to think about my own place in the universe
Sometimes I feel like
Humanity is just
A bumbling pox on the Earth that would be better off without itself
Sometimes I feel like
Love is just
A hopeful majority’s naive inclination to trick itself into behavioral continuation
Sometimes I feel like
My life is just
Nothing.

Relapsing with a beer as I read this, quite profound to us addicts!

Wow. This is really, really sad. But sometimes humanity is just a bumbling pox. Thanks for sharing this.

Okay I don’t know how to describe how garbage the title and first three or whatever preview quantity of lines this “poem?” is. I didn’t even read it because I couldn’t click on it because it was such a flaming piece of dumpster shit that my eyes metaphorically bled and I couldn’t see where to pointer was anymore.

fun fact of the day: leaving unnecessarily rude comments on other people’s creative efforts doesn’t count as yourself creating something, it just means you don’t have enough motivation or interest to make anything original 🙂

I’m sorry, blame wordpress for having your work assault my eyes on my reader at random.

Hey varjak, are you okay? You follow my blog so you obviously liked my writing at some point, and you’ve posted positive comments about it in the past. This sort of comment isn’t like you, and I’m worried that something is going on with you.

Something is going on with me. But I’ve made a pact with myself not to yell at anyone (on their blog–for now just on my blog).

These seem to be majority negative thoughts about medication. Medication has been scientifically shown to be a positive force. So, doubts are to be avoided. Doubts associated with disregard for wellbeing are to be expected, as that is the disease talking.
But actually yes I do agree that love is a synthetic psychosocial species-wise phenomenon.
