La Belle Lumière Sans Merci

I am an addict.
I guess that’s the first step.
Every night is the same.

The inspired sight of morning,
Evanescing against the invitation
To glut on pixeled escape.

Immaterial hours withdrawn,
exhausting a blind account,
Yielding a shiftless, fallow legacy.

Will I die a bankrupt bystander,
A receptacle of advertisements?
No!

I rage against that technicolor light!
Collecting not finales watched
But investing in finales I write.
