Vicodin Sure I Guess So

Vicodin? Sure. I guess so.
Might as well give it a go.
Codeine? Why not.
I am not an astronaut.

The pain is back
And I am mad.
It may be the worst
I’ve ever had.

What about your pills
I ask my Dad.
What are you taking?
Seeing them I’m glad.

Morphine? Sure. Why not? I ask.
I mix them with codeine, in a holiday flask.
I am dead now, due to poisoning myself
Found on Christmas day by a Santa Claus Elf.

I believe that these days, people repeat each other, way too much. I've always been happy being unique. Well penned.
