Vampires of the night
They are really there,
the sucking monsters,
surreptitiously inveigling you
to drain you out by their invasion,
the blood-sucking parasites,
confusing all your senses
and distorting all reality for you
by drowning you in fears and paranoia
just to cloud your soul and steal it
dragging you down by the nose to hell
of no escape and no way out
except into a constantly increasing darkness
until you no longer have any perspective left.
Who are they, then, those invisible mind parasites?
They are your own self-centredness and introversion,
your exaggerated occupation with yourself,
your own sick egotism and narcissism,
your self-deception in that dangerous delusion
that you are anything at all.
