Just Say No

Please just say no the way you already know there is no quid pro quo the process is painfully slow your mind's altered from seeds you did sow a withdrawl fit or two you'll throw your brain's chasis will flitter to and fro desiring the pleasure-pain once more to flow you'll quake then tremor for another blow but over time more resistance you'll show the residual effect will linger as you grow new habits you'll need to plant then hoe when depression tugs and your mind craves another row remember your barge already scraped that bridge so low and shipwrecked your life on the shoals of woe with steadying hands your anchor widely strow skirting every pirating dealer; now your foe
