The Chemical Ride

I wake up cold hollow empty

Feeling fresh ready and willing

The salt I absorb in water

Starts me up gets me going

Still cold

The boiling coffee

Blended with oil

Opens my eyes wide

Fills my core with heated

Energy

Sparkling and firing neurons electric

Connecting unfettered

As I leave my apartment wander into

The darkness

Of the cool oven

Before the sun turns the knob to cook

The fan of the temperature

Sparks me further

Skin compressed with cool

Insides awake with heat

I move energized energetic

Through my tasks

Loving the feel

Of a hollow belly

Lubricated with mineral water

Energized by the fat that burns slow

Relaxed and in the zone I'm empty

Ready

Feeling the energy of the Universe

All these ideas float around me

Ready

Ready to be picked like earthy apples on trees

I can absorb them all

Manic energy, but the feel is good

My limbs and flesh feeling great

Until I intake

A snack of solid foods

Which I eat like a fat slob

My stomach beckons

I can't stop

I can't stop

The sugars sweet and tart

Atop potatoes and corn

Food is like porn to a glutton

I can't stop the masturbation

Till the guts are bursting

Now all the energy gone

Clouded

Dizzy

Riding high I balanced out my human potential

Shoved a stop sign into crude gravel

On my road, stopped the manic beauty

With diabetic coma
