Cost of Living

I love marijuana so much.

The cost of living is never easy to pay
Some pop pills, slam dope, whatever it takes to wash the pain away
But Mary-Jane keeps a smile on my face
I smoke bowls, hit bongs, whenever I wake I bake and I'm feeling more than okay

The bills are stacking up every goddamn month
Utilities are killing me but you never leave me shaking in a rut
Your perfume and song intoxicate my lungs
Cigarettes and alcohol only go so far but you go the distance

6 million dollars
6 million miles
Crystals and purple pistils
Sensi, she's perfectly pretty

The cost of living is never easy to pay
Some pop pills, slam dope, whatever it takes to wash the boredom away
But Mary-Jane keeps a smile on my face
I smoke bowls, hit bongs, whenever I wake I bake and I'm feeling more than okay

YAY! I like your poem. Its very honest and real. I hate the stuff that writers write to sound like Edgar Allen Poe. You are more of a slam poet. Nice. I wrote a poem about the electric company sending me colored pieces of paper to celebrate my poverty while I listened to my neighbors f**k. You should check me out! I will look at more of your stuff :-)

Cool spoken word piece! I came across it by searching the keywords "spoken word." I used to smoke weed, and I understand how much of a de-stressor it can be. I also used to find it inspirational for poetry and music! Well, I say whatever does it for you is great. I enjoyed your rhymes too...keep it up, and if you wanna smoke, more power to you. :-)
