J.J. Campbell writes

happiness still eludes

faceless demons  
haunt me

they torture me  
in my dreams

so many years  
into this game
and happiness
still eludes me

i joked as a  
teenager that
god would
probably kill
me if i ever
really found
it

after all the  
prayers and
bottles of
liquor

that fucking  
teenager was
probably right

so, here's to  
god allowing
me just one
fleeting moment
before i decide
to take matters
into my own
hands

Faceless -- Austen Mengler
