Veins
Unforgiveably, perhaps, I have decided that I would be a superb drug addict. I am fascinated by the path that substances take through my bloodstream, and the effects of them entering my nervous system, my brain, my mind.
How did this happen? When was I consumed by these responses? I can sense, deeply sense, the unbreakable chain of chemical reactions spreading, shuddering, ebbing through me.
All this because of drinking a cup of coffee after four and a half days starved of caffeine.
