(my) Addictions

The online shopper
Hovers over the keypad
Credit card at hand

One more game to play
Majhong mania on-line
Barely lets you blink

Chocolate ice-cream calls
A muted but distinct voice
Dark temptation’s song

Vodka makes things right
Lethal hiding without taste
Still gives you a kick

Salt upon your skin
And the warmth of your caress
Hides all other sins

Blogging world beguiles
Just one more post to read now
Then I’ll go to bed…..

About Helen

I'm drawn to blogging as a way to share ideas and consider what makes us who we are. Whether it's in our working life or our creativity, expression is a means to connect.
