Sinner

My sins run cold, so
Hold me closely and scold me
I've told you, I'm old

sinners are seekers... they're bold...

and seekers are the ones who create...

@hb Funny you should say that... I had thought about making that last line "I'm bold" but decided on "old" instead.

@Manik Yes, seeking and creativity are closely linked. I think it's the dissatisfaction with how things are, and wanting to imagine new ways of being.

No... you're not old.
Yes...I can do that for you.
Why...am I doing this?
Maybe ...this whole new thing
was a transference
Now... I'm not sure
Look...what you have done
I... blame you for everything
Which...is very unfair
You...are quite nice to me
I...am very nice to you
Why...is enough never enough?
Who...wants to continually push the envelope?
Me
