He met Tula on a road -
Tobacco Road,
After a play.
She twirled for him at night,
But that was some time after.
First there was the long Tobacco Road.

You don't always die from tobacco.
Sometimes they'll remove part of your lung.
You don't always die from tobacco.
Sometimes they'll cut out your tongue,
and you won't speak worth a heck with that big hole in your neck.
No you don't always die from tobacco.

You don't always die from...

When government didn’t tell business what to say

With the regulations on ads the government’s givin’
It’s hard for honest cigarette sellers to make a livin’

Libelous scientific studies just keep on pouring...

I met a green 
horned tobacco
chewing catepillar

Spitting was his
Passion all day.
The cool night
gives hiding to 
HIS voracious appetite

Days are for napping

There are tears mixed 
into the pancake batter

by the window shades
without sunshine, I still 
wind up a morning person
Tobacco clings to me, 
where your scent would be
sewn with many memories 
into the mesh of myself
a premature family crest, 
stained and worn

The...

Old flame memories, and game show repeats,
viewed through tobacco, it's smoke fills the room,
loneliness, only, stays glued to defeat,
blue-bottles, can't help, but choke on the gloom.

Dreams like the remote, corroded to rust,

surrendered and lost, to despair and dust,
no-one levelled...

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....
