Anarchy of My Soul

Crashing and crushing is soul’s anarchy
That pushes me to reality’s horizon.
With bloodless wounds my idolatry
Slips, fails, finally spawns
A dark embrace with the chaos
That stokes my gluttonous hunger
For life’s meaning or its unsought loss,
Bringing guilt of which I am the first connoisseur.
