Junk-Pot-Lady

A weird title for deadly drugs
Inhaled, injected, or smoked
Widely abused, damaging the brain
Heroin, marijuana, and cocaine,

Addiction affect user's ability to sense pleasure
And may contribute to depression
They think, dream about it, constantly
Become irritable and confused, increasingly,

They are sold at head shops, nightclubs, and rave
Threatening teenagers,relatives, and friends
Leads to stroke, seizures, even some deaths
Putting their dreams at greater risk,

When you're bored, restless, confused or anxious
There are solutions, "positive addictions"
Through listening to music, exercising, mountain climbing
Say "No" to Drugs, save yourself from self-destruction.
