My wife insists that I obsess over things...
You know what? She's absolutely right. If you're reading this, you already know that my current obsession is nostr.π
This is the FIRST PUBLICATION of my original work, as some of that "Other Stuff" right here on N.O.S.T.R.
Obsession
by Duncan Cary Palmer
Like a tire with a flat spot,
Or an elbow out of joint
Like a ladder with a missing rung,
A pencil short a point
Like a rainstorm falling on a dime,
A lightbulb with a hole
Like a jar of jam with one big lump,
A broken piece of coal
My life is out of balance
And my days are all consumed
By my latest fascination;
All competing thoughts are doomed
I've lost all track of time and space,
My head's stuck in a hole;
Important matters set aside,
Obsession's on a roll
Life now has a single focusβ
Normal balance isn't itβ
I've become a one-track zombie
In an epileptic fit
Won't you help me?
Look! I'm drowning
In an ocean deep as hell,
Sinking deeper by the minute
Trapped within obsession's spell...
There's so many things I need to do...
If I could just break free...
Pray for me...
Pray for me!
