Aversion

Your experiences shape you

Or do you

Shape you?

It's hard to tell.

It's yet another thought

That makes one dwell.

Did the chick come first

Or was it that thing

That could fit under a bell.

Oh to hell!

You're like a spell.

Again, I got to dwell.

You were a diversion.

Some version

Of aversion.

But I learned,

I learned to kill,

Time that is.

The issue is,

The time I kill

Is slowly

Killing me.
