Moon Cycles

In this morbid world

I cringe to feel alive

Insidious oscillation

Conjuring the pernicious

Desperately craving

Supersession through

Repression, depression,

Chest under compression

Eyes wide with obsession

Deprived and lessoned

Held under by the weight of

My malignant transgressions,

Weighted by the moon

I cringe in review of another

Noxious day lived

Poised and eager for tomorrow

A new opportunity to overcome.
