Shame Refrain
Backbeat of my life
Shame Refrain
“Smoke too much. Drink too much. Eat too much. Rest too much. Get sick too much. Smoke too much. Drink too much.”
The rhythm of my life beats in negative inner critic tones. It’s a wall of sound. It’s a war song.
It is the shame refrain.
Each self criticism leads to an action that leads to a beat of the war drum. The shame drum. My life drum. That backbeat.
One day,
I hope to beat back.
