"his Choice"

Addiction is his Shepherd; he shall only Want.
It maketh him to place his ego as his only regard.
It leadeth him to consider excess as the norm.
It emptied him of a soul.
It leadeth him in the paths of destruction for its name's sake.

Yea, though he walks through the valley of the shadow of death,
He will fear no evil: For he calls it Good and knows no difference.
His rod and his staff, they are words of abuse and hostility.
He cares not who he harms, for he believes his own self-grandiosity,
That he is exempt from morality and decency.
The wreckage he causes never ceases to run over.

Surely denial and despair shall follow him all the days of his life,
and he will dwell in his own chosen insanity forever.
