What's Your Toxin

Lichen adhered to tree's trunk encrusts its capacity Patches of debauchery, bumpy story depicts warts Climb skyward inhibited by extra growth grotesque A habit steers without cognition, clutched roadmap Tipple ripples laughter beneath a turbulent fountain Frantic factory produces smoothly upon first guzzle Unified aim wastes chaos, pours tranquillity on dust Pasted nerves pacified stick with visions of Nirvana Ego free to abandon its cage, street stomp rampage Drank moderate half bottle is replaceable tomorrow Appears bearing beseechment of devilish yesterday A sip didn't administer mist thick enough to sleep on Thimble begins ruined resolve, vat improving futures Quantified estatic elation equivalent to liquid imbibed Reign of rib rub anointing sterilises dried callous cuts Sun stream runs nude nonchalant in dim changeroom 11th February Innibriated
