Reading

the obsessive pages spiral, spin, revolve
(she says she turns them)
twisting the words words words around her evolved mind
her addiction
her prozac
her entertainment
all for the low price of a servile life
but that will never sell
she doesn’t care
plucks another sentence
And wraps it around her rapture

Wow! This reads like a picture of my early life and my escape from it. Well done.
