Challenge of the Week CXXVIII
Karma's a Bitch. Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or Prose.
Dripping Wet in Loss
You found it all too easy to get what you want fast
Seduce her with lies until that throbbing need has passed
Pocket that cash because you worship glitter and gloss
You’re addicted to desire, you’re dripping wet in loss
And be sure to dress it pretty for your social media feed
Breath in that silicon glory, lap up that holier-than-thou greed
But one day you’ll awaken and find yourself lonely and scarred
That boomerang called Fate came around to whack you hard
Your soul once golden, crumbles to pieces in defeat
Open wide, here’s a putrid portion of it for you to eat
Rinse and repeat until you learn about love and sincerity
It’s time to grow up and face life with terrifying clarity
