No, No, No

Shoot it in Shoot it high In my stream Or I'll die Poem drug Just for me Shooting up Constantly Poem fix Take me high A good trip Paint the sky Oh, what sweet... ECSTACY Taste of real... FANTASY All is cool All is fine Druggie girl Likes her rhyme Powered words Potent praise Under tongue What a daze! No rehab Not for me Got some more? Yes, it’s free Overdose? No, no way Double hit… Starts my day YOU’RE my drug Can’t you see? And your name? Poetry! Eileen Manassian Ghali

I love it when you're on a high, Eileen! How can you ever think of abandoning poetry!! You live by it, it nourishes you, and we're lucky that we can taste it, too. // paul

I've written another one on this subject way back when, but as you can see...the addiction is going strong. Withdrawal symptoms were killing me. OH...there it goes...another poem coming on. Hugs. Thanks Cas
