Poetry - 36 Lines
Come to Me,
False Clarity.
Breathe Smoke,
Choke.

Addiction is Starving,
Always Needing More.
Never Truly Having,
And Always Being Poor.

Breathe Smoke,
Pause, Choke.

Feed It Like a Cold,
Or Starve it Like a Fever.
Try to Break its Hold
It'll Let Go, Never.

Thirsty Drink,
Wonder, Stink?

Hide Its Dirty Tracks,
Damage That It's Done.
Wrong And Spiteful Acts,
Things It Thought Were Fun.

Sit. Relax.
Climax.

Ecstasy And Elation.
Euphoria And Exaltation.
Elevation And Absolution.
And Finally Acclimatization.

Life Sucks,
Thank God,
I'm High.

Reward, A Fleeting Moment,
And The Chase Begins Again.
Never Reaching Fulfillment,
The Chase Its Only Friend.

Life Sucks,
Because,
I'm High.
