Definitely gets one thinking. If you ever find the answer, please share. It's sad how many lives are wasted by choosing that path of life Kelly

Interesting poem. Also, interesting question. I don't have the answer. Those who walk the path of destructive drugs must have lacked a genuine parental love. Pls comment my poem-Spring Links..thankfully.

I Call It The Super-Human-Syndrome... They Think... "It Could Never Be My Addiction"... How Sad... I Had A Brother, Who Died from It... We (Our Family) Could Never, Will Never Figure That One Out... MoonBee

Varied reasons for this just like their are many reasons that a person decides to be a theft. The main reason is that they don't have a close relationship with God and family. Like the way that you put the info in a poem. Sara

Compelling poem, James. Wish I had an answer. People who use drugs often create hardships for those whom they love. Addiction is a terrible thing. Quite a tragedy! Love you! Carolyn
