"Your Addiction" (Free Verse Poem)


See, I wanna be…
 more than a short email, an explicit text msg, or  Skype chat CHEAP THRILL
Perceived to be more relevant to you than just another “ face in the crowd,”  a piece of “bomb ass pussy” or holding the  title of ‘”honorary”  “good” friend with benefits
Yes more priceless to you then any five star cuisine meal served over a “bed of rice” and  “insignificant small talk “discussing your rolodex of long yet impressive   industry affiliations
In the dim moonlight glow,
I wanna be the last name you utter before you go
The one  you’d definitely, selfish-ly, lay down  your life “foe”
Your earthly and cosmic partner  scribbled in His “big book” 
“wwaayy”  before… He Created Heaven and Earth
Making References to me as your “closest relative” or ” your next of kin”
Cuz,  see…  the others remain a long list of
Nameless
 Faceless
Jane Does and Empty headed Hoes
While I serve as the main supplier of that “good shyt” monopolizing the game and putting the competitions product on lock
I am  a bright and
 morning star
A true reflection of you and the Creators hands
A torch of lite that luminates your pathway from dark loneliness
 satisfying your soul and setting your world ablaze
A soft human pillow with perfect contour
 to fit inside my tight, warm , wet cocoon of Love
 I want  you to-
 Pursue me…
 like Americans pursue the pursuit of happiness
Chase me
 like a dream deferred…
Obsess over  me
like Americans obsess over attaining the  American dream
Search  for me
like an enthusiast searches for the fountain of youth
Look for me
Like  a little black boy
scans  the stands expecting to see his father there
Put out a hit on me
like the way “the  God Mother,” Greiselda Blanco,
did on JFK ‘s life
Support me
like African Americans supported  Obama at the polls
Put on a world wide man –hunt
 like they did
to bring down  Bin Landen and the Taliban
Leave no place on “God’s “ “Green” EARTH
  big enough for ME to hide from your Love!
Let me be… 
The heroine u shoot in your veins
The SMOKE
 that a crack fein inhales to numb his  pain
The methadone
that an addict needs to curb his  withdrawals
 to keep him from going insane
See I am the princess of All Antidepressants and the most  powerful sleeping pill
Known to man
See fucking  me baby is like sniffing “COKE-Caine”

I AM YOUR ADDICTION
