Porn Addict
I am one.
let it linger
let it soak
don't be eager
don't be a joke
*
you are an addict
it's time to face it
thoughts erratic
they're all laced with
*
the ugly, vulgar and degrading
fucking shameful at nearly thirty
your relationships fading
intimacy twisted, corrupt and dirty
*
you're being abused
by your lack of control
you're grossly confused
it's drowning your soul
*
find some discipline
do whatever it takes
this stuff is poison
grotesque and fake
*
you say your quest
is truth and authenticity
are you saying that in jest?
all i see is hypocrisy
*
it's crippling young boys
taking their innocence
instead of playing with toys
they're seeing sexual malevolence
*
it got me young
and sunk in its claw
then i was strung
my fatal flaw
*
how do we talk about something taboo?
something so common,
so damagingly untrue
*
sexually transmitted dopamine hits
forces us to go after
much more then just tits
*
its undermining our culture
a spiritual black hole
like a predatory vulture
feasting on our soul
*
So go ahead and give it a tug
but just remember,
Porn is a drug.

Powerful and earnest poem about a topic that is taboo yet should be discussed.
Your honesty is admirable, and you've described the anger with a powerful voice. The last line really brings the message home. Excellent insightful piece of writing, Dean.
PowerPoint ❤️💯✨😉
Very powerful. Tough topic to tackle but you got the message across very well.
Bravo for letting this out. It's so wrong how smart phones and tablets are just a click away from destroying/altering one's natural sexual development.
Whoa! I love that you wrote and shared this. Thanks for brave exploration of the taboo. This particular subject gives me a lot of angst, sadness, frustration, and I feel all of this in your poem, albeit from a perspective different from my own, which I appreciate all the more.
Excellent, like the flow of this
