'Not the Desired Effect'
Stood by the fire, t ‘was her greatest desire, it burned; the globe of a thousand memories
She wanted it bad, she wanted it good, nobody would have understood
But then
Stood by the freezer, it was the greatest teaser; the fresh future yet to arrive
It enthralled, it inspired and so it transpired that she would steal that future
That had not yet arrived
She went to it running, galloping, hurtling
It promised good, it promised bad but all the love, the excitement to be had
It was dead and at the head of it all
One small dead lonely girl.
Those drinks, those drugs, a million chances missed to comprehend that this would kill her off in the end. The dead, bright, white future no longer bright but dead in the whites of her eye.
