what went wrong?
it feels like just yesterday i was promising
to never become intoxicated
or exhale ghosts.
i know it's bad for me,
but maybe bad is all i'll ever know.
i don't care if alcohol squeezes my liver
until it bursts.
i don't care if smoke scorches my lungs
until they turn black.
i don't care if my face
turns blue.
in fact,
i don't care
about anything at all.
