Summary:
This piece was selected for DUP's 'Deep Underground: The Anthology: from the harder side of poetry to the nest' which comes out this march. I feel very honored and especially lucky to be included in this. Thanks to everyone who made this possible.

Promises, promises. 
Apple-feighned oranges. 
Addicts claim rehab, 
yet itch to have more of this.

Order this, order that. 
Bought a fish, got a cat. 
Bigger boats needed, 
yet neither floats even. 

Buyers remorse? 
Get me all worked up then buy me a horse. 
I’m addict by choice. 
Level headers rejoice! 

I’m not buying what I can’t afford. 
I’m not lying about what i hoard. 
I mean store. I’m not a hoarder… 
I get angry, my patience grows shorter. 

Riddled me this, tit for tat. 
Little needs more of this and that. 
The more i’ve had, the more I lost. 
The less I sell, the more it cost. 

Few are more while plenty seem less. 
I rather keep one while you claim the mass.
