First of all, your username is fantastic. I give your handle a 10/10

As for the poem, I think Bukowski would approve. It’s frustrated, follows a single train of thought and blends mundane facts with a non traditional structure that reads as sincere. I like it a lot. Not frilly, not flowery, definitely not my taste, but I still enjoyed it.

 I hope you conquer your addiction the way you conquered the fear of posting we all suffer at some point.

I laughed way to hard at this title I am so so sorry. Good stuff! 

I have no place to judge. Reddit is definitely my priest and filthy whore 🥴


Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).

If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.

If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that. If you're not sure what that means, check out our [feedback guide](https://new.reddit.com/r/ocpoetry/wiki/feedbackcritiques), or look 

I love this and it's a feeling one can easily relate to. I especially like how you're able to convey a lot of feeling and imagery behind short sentences or snippets. No exaggeration or sweet talk, just disaffected self-reflection which cuts deeper. A lotta the stuff I try to write comes out kinda wordy and long-winded, so I want to try to take inspiration from this.

I found this site for porn

Then it influenced me to try pot

Now I look for community here

But I find trolls

I find the disaffected lonely

I find myself too arrogant to reach out to either


So even though this account is "clean"

I haven't been for some time

Is Reddit my whore and my priest?


I've choked drinking water a couple times today

It would be ironic

Or meaningful

Or important

If I didn't hate the sensation so much


So I hope

I avoid seductive imagery

For a good long while


And I hope

My next poem

Will mean something
