I perform the cut
sporadically, but religiously
whenever I look behind
or within
or when I embrace the dark
you see, pain is fabricated
love is too
with careful training
we create homeostasis
magic is a filter
pairing well with dark
the ever so intoxicating pull
of the cosmic mirage
cut, cut, cut
and it grows back and withers
each time weaker and weaker
until fine baby strands remain
breaking off in the tiniest of breezes
