Dragon's Den
I am pleading in this squat
Crawling on the floor
Impatiently awaiting
Hoping of your score
My heart furiously pounds
You are absent; no not here
In a twisted panic
I know you are not near
Caring not for safety
Addiction leads the way
Yet I beg only to find you
Whatever, I will pay
Frantically I search
Into the dragon’s den
Needle in your arm
I am left alone again
Crawling on the floor
Impatiently awaiting
Hoping of your score
My heart furiously pounds
You are absent; no not here
In a twisted panic
I know you are not near
Caring not for safety
Addiction leads the way
Yet I beg only to find you
Whatever, I will pay
Frantically I search
Into the dragon’s den
Needle in your arm
I am left alone again

Yipe. What a painful memory to have. I. was thrown at first by the squat followed by a crawl in the first stanza, but by the time I finished I fully understood.
Did you mean 'here'?
Solid conveyance, Mel.

Fine work here, Mel. The Piper always get paid, however his payments are no longer from me. <3
