Sever Emotion From Reality

By Dominic Jones

Sever ambitious emotion from my sober reality

It is okay to be numb sometimes

Defense mechanism

Let loose with the fury of a thousand suns

Helping others

Is my new calling, perhaps

And take nothing for granted

Adulterated my coffee with half n half

And smoked a fine tobacco product

Caffeine props me up

Until the great let down

Scraping through a portal to the great beyond

Someday I will see all of the pets we have lost

And friends and relatives as well
