even all these years later
the temptation
remains
how to control it
to keep from doing something
I know I'll regret
holding back
keeping myself
from tasting the forbidden fruit
or the illusion of it
drawn in by what I think is
for lack of a written invitation
we always defeat ourselves
pushing into something
because we want it
even when there's no proof it exists
I live my life as a phantom
images of my desire broadcast
on the horizon like a mirage
I am always thirsty
especially for what I
know
I should not have
resisting the ever
self imposed
temptation
