Still Smoking When Last Seen

Still Smoking When Last Seen

He was still smoking when last seen;
Had been having bad habit and a fein;
Smoke filled air,
And hard to bare;
Stopped eating so he could look lean.

Seems like anything you inhale is harmful to you.

My wife and I never have smoked and never will. Both of our parents did though. Back in the 40's smoking was addicting. Still see the guy smoking a Camel and blowing a circle near the empire state building.
