Sweet Dragon

Methadone dreams
heroin nightmares
needing a fix
 
now more than ever
my heart bruised
hurting I long  
to fill the rig
 
inject it in my neck
and blast off
to dream land
mix my methadone
with heroin
 
really fucking get off
tar burning in the spoon
vinegar in the air
make love with the dragon
 
get lost in the maze  
of running the streets
home at last
yes i'm an ex junkie whore
 
that doesn't mean
I don't feel  
my heart constricts  
at rejection
 
i'm not so poetically inclined
just raw truth and pain
today I don't want  
one whiskey, one bourbon, one beer
 
I want my methadone blanket
the heroin jacket
barbed wire heart not affected
by life such as it is
 
i'm slipping sideways
benzos mixed with whiskey
not healing this broken
macabre spectacle
of a person
 
i'm in a cage of self hate
teetering on the edge
of madness
veins burning
for a final kiss of death
 
longing to plummet  
into the darkness  
erase the taint
that hugs my soul tight
