Best Nicotine Poems

*LIFE,  WHAT A RUSH*

Silence needs to be spoken and put out like a cigarette
The joy - the laughter - the expression found in a silhouette
Inhale the wholesomeness   -   Exhale the worthiness. 
The soul- addicted to all the toxins this world contains
Life is like nicotine circulating throughout your veins
Wrath is a venom that absorbs all the fumes that flow
Trigger the mind   and you'll see smoke blow
Hope entwined with clouds of wisdom
Tobacco strangling every inch of the nerve system
Vapors exceed emotions, love and veneration
Smog proceeds in slow motion
Puffing the beauty, by draining the heart and mind
Filtering all the nicotine bad breath left behind

Nicotine Dream

Nicotine death
                                                     devil in smoke 

                               shining in front your eyes with Harry potters
                                                 invisible cloak taking
                                                 Breath by breath with 
                                                      every smoke 
                                                       you'll choke

                                                        its no joke
                                         stop the smoke stop the smoke 

                  black
                                tar 
                  dimming 
                        a
                     inner 
                                star
                             shriveling
                                    lungs

                                          far to 
                                               young  bad tasting
                                                       tongue

struggling to 
     absorb air 

so you seek to sit down some where ,frantically stretching
to reach a near chair, with a mysterious fear, with the 
other hand wiping a single tear, and you can hear a 
loud chime and ringing ,as your swaying swinging and 
you whisper your last poem, that you never got to show EM!
 HE SAYS ......I shall never smoke again..... THE END
                  He in the arms of Gentle she.
                he watches his body from above
                              it was to late 
                Becoming smoke was his final fate....
                          ITS SAD TO SAY IT!

                              Grime in lungs
                     Grime took his time away
               with his wife and kids he couldn't stay 
                               I don't know but 
                              i am no hypocrite
                             but I decided to quit!

Nicotine and Diesel

Face well worn, Graying hair,
Marlboro in his mouth.

Clay-dirt boots, dusty hat,
Bologna from a sack.

Tastes of nicotine and diesel,
he can’t spit it out.

The old man makes his living 
on a caterpillars back.


Patience and Nicotine

PATIENCE AND NICOTINE


“coffee, two sugars, hold the cream please”

home made filtered cigarettes
bitterly cutting the cost.
too many books on the floor and the walls.

he cooks dinner – chicken and au gratin potatoes –

“put more potatoes. it lasts longer.”

cars speed on M-72 – noisy speed – 
the dog licks herself desperate 
with nothing else to do

birds chatter from one cage to another
and I am lost in normality
with my freedom strangled 
in dusty curtains and a sinkfull of dirty dishes.

“do they have cats in Baghdad? CNN didn’t say.”

car insurance is due – life is due.

he cooks dinner
“did you put more potatoes?’

I wait for what is mine,
maybe a knock on the window
in the morning or at midnight,
but he kisses me and rushes in the kitchen.
today I look old with my life at a lent starving
I’m unplugged from today – no spices
“how was your day?” “fine. yours?”  “fine.”
slice, spice, butter, bake.

I didn’t laugh or cry today

no twittering of blue birds
just screams and groans of a mad beast
that bites foaming, clawing the wrinkled skin.

we are two old statues in the park
and pigeons **** on us
because we forgot to be drunk on foolishness.

Smoke Free - Part Ii

I've been smoke free two months today.
I haven't smoked and I hope that's how things will stay.
Please don't start smoking, it wasn't a good thing for me to do.
Please say no to nicotine because that is what is best for you.

Nicotine

Like an ester, she clings
Silver-tongued yet soaked in
Sepia. A perfume of precarious 
Yellows and ambers in hues and
Dazes of a light and melodious 
Brown. Mustard gas pigments
Filtering onto impure hands
Vapour smog; rampant in clots
Flooding into hair, hands, the leather
Of skin; into an eternity.
Ash collecting like a snow flood
Of monochromes and greys
Fading partially to blanks and 
Dances of dirty blonde, promiscuous
Addiction; timeless Bright Young Thing
The very nature of an elixir
All our addictions catch us in the end
The curtain call rupturing on
Barbed wire hands and claws
A hunters' snare; beautiful for only a moment
Catching eternal, ethereal glassy air


Nicotine

You are the nicotine rushing through my head
Each kiss a long drag off my Red
Your touch consumes me like smoke
You are my addiction

Nicotine

They made it so hard to speak your name,
So much harder for me to blame them.


Enters in red right through my chest you
burned a clear gap.
Ready,
aim,
fire. 


Dynamite and dopamine share a first dance
A lit cigarette in my naive little hand. 

Each inhale like kerosene to my roots
Exhaling flames in the face of the truth.



I was always so willing to hold my breath
for you.

Nicotine

Wish i never would have left the house,
Our pride Our big Solanaceae family.
Never wished to bring dishonor to our family.
I just wanted to do something on my own that people would appreciate & would know how important i am,
but not in this way!

Sorry that i left Nicotiana, I know i belong to the house of Nicotiana.
I knew i had something in me so addictive but i always took it as my inner voice pushing me towards success.
Wish i never would have met Harmine, Thought we had something in common that would make us grow big.
Never even thought that we would make it so big that half of the world population would start suffering.

But again, Why dont human use there brain to get rid off the addiction? Why dont they stop smoking even if they know its not good?
Why its always me to be blamed? Why its just my existence bringing them close to their death?
No! I am not addictive!  No! I am no the only cause behind their Death!

Its the human nature to blame something else for their failure, Not ME!

Nicotine

though I was born
as a cancer in a death bed
drifting apart
from the trinity
from dignity
it is the brain
which needs some chemicals
beyond boundaries
of the meaning of placebo
twelve divisions 
of signs ignite
smouldering
inhaling
burn through skies
something is missing
to decrease the tension
in a negative light
to cure the insomnia
in an ecliptic sphere
and worsening mood
floats with philosophy
in the evening lounge

Nicotine Poet

The inside of my knuckles,
Between the middle and index finger, 
Burn like hell.

This cigarette has drawn an ash,
Longer than I could draw a line
Upon a piece of paper.

I'm afraid,
To inch my hand anywhere near it.
This keyboard, 
It's so god damn clean.

Is it necessary to create such a mess,
Upon the place my hands work?
While the canvas,
The bright screen,
Remains clean?

Nicotine

flash of pearly smile,

       but a tinge of nicotine

              oh, can still be seen.

Premium Member The Nicotine Clown

She smells like nicotine
It is in her hair and on her nails.
It resonates when she speaks
And it puffs smoke when she wails.

She is kind of a cigarette clown.
Her scent is not feminine or nice.
She has such a terrible odor
That I would rather smell my mice.

Holding up this lit cigarette,
Like tiny trumpet in fingertips.
