Obsession
Detrimental, destructive, deleterious
A poison to one’s mind
Perilous and dangerous
Fascinating infatuation
A passion so extreme
Sought after and refused
It’s insane and inane
It makes one a fool
Silly and fatuous
It’s extreme and egregious
It’s taken too far
Inciting fear and anxiety
It’s terrifying and appalling
Considered psychotic and demented
Taboo to society
And yet….
It’s rampant and unbridled
Considered the highest of praise
Obsession
