Intrigue

(note an old write written after coming off heroin)  
   
living the life of the sedate  
I sometimes miss the days of danger  
youth full of wonder and adventure  
   
arsenic mixed with opium is intrigue    
how many times did the viper bite  
before I realized this is poison  
   
yet still searching for fun and mystery    
landscapes unexplored  
doors unopened  
   
all of them labeled  
with a question mark  
enter at your own risk is intrigue
