Best Drugs. Poems
A Poem For My Algebra TeacherI know I promised
no more ‘Make you Cry Poems’
I said I'd never write another
‘Wipe your eye poem’
And for three years
I tried not to retract,
but after so many tears
I have to take that promise back.
I write this Thesis
after going through a lost photo album,
trying to trace the...

God Bless the UsaI smoked a pack of Marlboros
Every day, left butts smoldering
In dirty, smelly ashtrays
The nicotine addiction compelled
Me to quit… yet, I did not
I smoked until there was only
Short, spasmic breaths
Left in my black lungs
And oxygen had to be taken aside
So I could light up
I drank a fifth of vodka
Every day, left empty glasses
In a...

The Beginning of the EndI've been trying to fill this hole deep inside my chest.
I promised I plead but you still left like all the rest.
So here I sit once again I’m all alone.
You won't even send a text to my phone.
This is where I fail to stay strong.
This life of mine starts to go wrong.
I took my lighter...

A Wish and a PrayerMy Mama never cleans the house;
she lets the dirt pile high.
The cockroaches and other bugs
are always crawling by.
The refrigerator is empty
and the bread is hard as stone,
and sometimes when I’m hungry
I can hear my belly groan.
Still Mama says that tomorrow
she will clean and cook, but you see,
I know that’s just...

Every RoomShaking hands, legs covered in blood...
Where am I?
My vision is a blur, but I can’t unsee you.
Nothing about this feels right.
I hear your voice, again and again:
“Just take the pills, they’ll give you a thrill.”
For a moment they’ll numb my brain.
But it’s two in the morning,
The tears in my eyes and marks on...

Then and NowWhen did we lose days when truth was high,
when friend was a friend, years unending;
Government could look us in the eye.
Before hurling insults was trending,
seems like it was many years ago.
when we hid words that were offending.
The drug scene was pending; we didn't know
Facebook was, thankfully, then unseen
Heros in space was our nightly show
Today's world...

DrugsWords.
These words merely written on paper.
They do so much good for the soul.
They're something miraculous.
Like spun gold from the dull lead embedded in a wooden frame.
It become your safe haven.
You begin to scribbled until your bones are corroded with artheritis and your skin cracks and bleeds, because you need it.
It's like...

This Lust Is Like Being Hooked On DrugsI disappointed God by living a life where I should have died
Many times often times I wanted to commit suicide
Because of the shame that wouldn't subside
Meeting people I didn't know
My affections I couldn't let go
I could only imagine that it's like being on drugs
I Only really wanted was for somebody to show me love
Hooked on...

Drugs, Drugs!!!Drugs, Drugs! that's all that I need.
At least thats all I used to believe.
Drugs, Drugs! that's all that I did.
I didn't even think of my kids.
Drugs, Drugs! that's all that I want.
I didn't even care that I was wrong.
Drugs, Drugs! they're in my home.
Now both of my kids are gone.
Drugs, Drugs! straight to my head....

Playing Guitar In the RainI’m too old to live out these songs I sing.
There has been too much pumped into these veins.
But if you remember how I was back in time…
Won’t you toss me a nickel or a dime?
I used to travel all around the world.
and I bought my condoms by the case full.
I stored all my cocaine...

The Devil In DisguiseIf you're a celebrity
For medications come to me
I have them all, come see, come see
I'm the devil in disguise
I sign prescriptions by the score
If you run out, I'll give you more
I'll bring your pills right to your door
I'm the devil in disguise
Dr. Robert, Feelgood too
Names I'm sure are known to you
If you're in need call...

There’s a Girl I Knew
There was a pretty young thing,
from just outside of New Orleans,
that worshipped the ground that he walked on.
She was an innocent girl,
not understanding how the world,
could be so full of hate and frustration.
Was her husband’s love and joy,
and her blue-eyed baby boy,
were what gave her all that she needed.
So when he brought home his lies,
and...
