Tim Ryerson Poet Light Verse

I Kicked the Habit But It Keeps Kicking Me Back

So very proud
I just quit smoking

Five minutes ago
Nothing to it

I've quit smoking
Thousands of times
Just takes willpower...

For Joann's "Shanzi" contest

Randy Johnson June 28, 2012 at 5:36 PM I know what smoking is like. I'm hoping to kick the habit soon myself. I hear that nicotine patches are a good way to do it. I hope you and I can quit for good.
