The Opiate, Knowledge is the Root of Sensuality

Fellow seeker of infinite,
temptatious heavenly bodies,
there for us to edify our primordial simple souls.
Stand with me between opposing poles
igniting passion,
power and control.

It is in the greatness of disparity,
the bridging of the gap
that makes this
electrifying joy so immense,
so absolutely irresistible, seductive
and intense.

You and I, we share
unquenchable a thirst
for spikes of epicurean ecstasy,
being the junkies that we are
we’ll do anything...
just to chance upon… but one last star.
