The Drug Poem
A bottle of beer two grams of coke
a bottle of whiskey one fix of dope
shit I love to party blowing out my fuses
walking into bars and getting a few bruises
Party party party It's almost all hardy
this is no joke It's most defiantly true
now listen to me man I'm talking to you!
As I sit in my head I can feel the pain,
then the blood starts rushing to my brain
I spread my wings towards the wind
then out of nowhere I begin to spin
I open the windows to all my thoughts
I shut the doors for I could not cop
I reach for something but it just not there
I use to care cuz it just wasn't fair
Then it starts to happen
I'm sober once again
I think this time I'm finished
as I start to drink again
A bottle of beer two grams of coke
again I'm hanging at the end of my rope
I reached for something but it's just not there
I love to party but the rules aren't fair

I saw your disclaimer off line earlier, but was too busy to log on. I wouldn't have edited any ink that I know I wrote, regardless to similarities in prior poems, lyrics etc.... Xo

Your words remind me how often humans feel the need to escape where they are, sometime figuratively, sometimes physically. Maybe both. Watching tv, playing video games, meditation, to some degree fit that role. Love the way you end the write with those last two lines,
