magalomania
there’s nothing worse than the terrible
truth when you read it stop before
it’s too late avert your eyes lest it change
your course instead accept the dumb
waiter’s sedating meal always delivered
day in day out this way you can die
in loving blindness without ever helping
anyone without ever feeling
the stomach pains of morality twisting
without ever having to fix all
the holes in the blanket of wool
you once thought moths made
the ones not big enough to see
out of but too big to ignore
