Fall Out of Love with Every Word

Temptation to glory, honor, accolades
Enabled by work, merit, sweat
Or perhaps in love with love, friendship, family
Further expansiveness sees the city, nation, nature
Each obsession's eccentricities lead the worshipper 
To certain tainted waters
Boredom, despair, horror: specific avoidance is a failure code as well
I wish to see the edges and changes and mishaps
Unfold and decay and restart
How the world is can't be trusted
Neither can how it could be
Thus this marshland home
May go to desert or depths
Here I'll be through the next and the last
Wreaking or resting or gone
