Bittersweet

The juxtaposition between the fantastic and the sublime creates a subtly erratic sting. The tingle and the rush of pleasure-blood to the head and release of seratonin in the brain, combined with the guilt and the gore of the grotesque underbelly of darkness is quite uncanny all at once. Forget the side-effects, the judgements, and the preconceptions; Just feel it. Isn't it satisfying to feel so good yet so bad at once? And to what extent is "bad" a "good" thing? So THIS is what is defined as "bittersweet"! The rarity and obscenity of it all is almost too distant to grasp, yet it's all too easy to consume the daunted fruit from the tree of sin. Perhaps life never did come short of what we expected.
