Amphetamine

AMPHETAMINE I feel the beating of my heart and I wake up with a start not worrying or hurrying just use the speed that I impart to transmit, relay or convey the glory of a brand new day as the power of a drug might aid me while I rev my brain no ambling like a common slug I break fast… now my coffee’s gone with my toast to egg on bac on then rush outdoors to greet the dawn I’m flushed with energy and brawn I sit to put my Nikes on a moon walk from my quaint abode to jog on to the open road I know I can no longer wean on what is called Amphetamine Your Amphetamine Poetry Contet Sponsored by Anthony Slausen April 7, 2019

What a joy this was to read Ralph. When I was young doctors used to prescribe this to us as if it were unharmful. I can relate and this poem made me smile. I especially loved your lines "I sit to put my Nikes on a moon walk from my quaint abode to jog on to the open road" So creative! : ) xxoo
