Anything and Everything
No matter the form or function.
Coveted, admired, wanted, craved
The home, the music, the love, the drug.
Whether desired, admired, prized, sustained
The complexity of want, and it won't let go.
Eyed, spied, inhaled, ingested,
Cherished, harnessed, bought and sold
Whether animal, vegetable, mineral, chemical
All is egregious to the soul.
