A kiss is not a covenant?

When it comes down to it, it's all hepkitten's fault. No surprise there. ;-)

I never should have kissed the bitch.

Back in the old days, you could go to a club, dance to music, and find some cute guy or girl to take home with you. The only things you had to worry about were bacteria, bio-viruses and spurned ex-lovers subscribing you to political party spamlists. Now I've caught religion.

It's spreading. Hacked and piggybacked on my allergen suppressor nanites so that I can't flush 'em out of my system if I want to keep breathing. I fight for discomfort and disturbance against insidious serenity. I want to hold onto the tired, poor, real world around me would just be a happier place if - shit! Won't be long now. Never should have kissed the bitch. I feel like my soul is being raped into salvation.

My skin has started tingling, and almost can't feel the dirt. It's starting to feel like Earth instead. I want to sit on the table so I don't feel so connected, but my feet don't want to leave the ground. I can feel the people walking past this abandoned playground, and it hurts to see them so lonely.

It. Physically. Hurts.

I feel like kissing someone.
