Follow Your Bliss

Follow your bliss 
Even on a trajectory of 
Anticipated wreckage

I’d much rather perish
In a state of euphoria
Than wretched regret

Find what you love
and let it kill you
The great Bukowski said

Let it consume you
With a fiery passion
Rather than merely existing

Let the exquisite hunger
Destroy your resistance
Allow it to overcome you

Die with a song of praise
And ecstasy on your lips
While it devours your remains

All roads lead to death
Choose the path that 
Ignites your perfect bliss 

Don’t allow lamentation 
To follow you through
The gates to eternity
