Obsessive-Compulsive (the mark)


Compulsion’s curve
(I am a good boy)
Continually approaches a line
Reaching for infinity
But never reaches
Home
The stretch of the horizon
Is forever
Obsession is ever unhappy
With its endeavor
Always overshoots its goal
Never attains it
The mark of a mole on a cheek
A mistake
An inborn curse
I am the bastard child
Of two people
Who never loved one another
But I am a good boy
May I always remember that
