On a High

Addiction, fixation, obsession

Fixation, obsession, addiction

Obsession, addiction, fixation

How can I handle this permutation?

Distracted, agitated, shaken, insane

Intoxicated through my vein

A drug stronger than methamphetamine

How can I further explain?

Hooked!

Just hooked

Fire burning as it's always stoked

Sensation overload, overbooked

Alive, elated, in bliss

Exploring with much kinesis

Oh, what a great poiesis

A gift as I've found my oasis!
