Strung Out

heroin diaries

stay up in bed

just to nod off

to your book

stay up

in the living room

just to burn holes

in your couch

one is too many

and a thousand

is never enough

falling graces

losing touch

the fringes of reality

begin to blur

careless

clueless

helpless

you're trying to read

but you keep

dropping your book

you light a cigarette

but you forget to

inhale

exhale,

"we're strung out, babe

and I don't want to be."

Strung out and not wanting to be. Careless. Clueless. Helpless. This one puts you right inside a drug induced stupor. If only people seeking to experiment could read this first. Well done.

That just made me so happy to read. Thank you, thank you, thank you
