Premium Member As good as it gets
Where's Jack Nicholson?
Where did he go?
Is he dead yet?
Does any one know?
Wars, and opiates,
mass shootings and debt,
and that potential nuclear threat.
Is this truly as good as it gets?
One might end up with Tourette's,
as good as it gets..

Pain
I still feel the pain                                                      
No opiates                                                                                  
Let it rest till my heart breaks                                              
No barbiturates...

Dissipate
DISSIPATE when you flicker on and off I cannot touch you… your essence when I put my fingers into the flames of your heart will they burn or dissipate like opiates and nauseous capsules of hate.. that inflate my dying ego Conversations with a like-minded poet © Kim van Breda—4 December 2015

Sin Like Sand
Lying here with a straw in my hand.
Contemplating tying off with a band. 
Wish I could just stop this s**t.  
Withdrawals back, let this be my last hit. 

Got put on, took 3 days to make a band.
Racked up a couple grand, before I lost the woman who made me a man. 
Now I'm lost in a desert wasteland. 
Inhaling this sin like sand. 

Don't know how much more I can stand. 
I've lost everything. 
Everything, except my empire of sand....
