I hate drugs. mellow.gif


"A Drug's Rapacity"
I dream of concocting a subterfuge to move on
Yet, his inscrutable behavior attracts me
Regardless of his nonchalant actions, he's gone

The infamous (yet equally nefarious) friend is to blame
It's love...despite his incorrigible behavior
Granted, deep down, all men are all but one in the same

My body collapses as I take the plunge below
Deeper I sink as the ubiquitousness of water surrounds
I made sure to leave the letter - a guarantee for him to know

No more sanguine-natured friends to speak
No more paranoid nights spent battling tears
No more contemplating the future as being so bleak

My chagrin brought upon his temerity
My volatility annihilated by his melancholy
This lugubrious immolation defies my tenacity

If only this were not so useless
If only his eyes were not sewn shut
He might have seen how they are utterly deleterious

In Amsterdam Hash, weed, and shrooms are all legal. For more danger prone drugs, the punishments are a lot harsher than that of the United States and yet they have maintained the least amount of drug addicts in all of europe since the time of which the laws were enstated.

"Marijuana isn't a drug. I sucked feet for coke! Have you ever sucked feet for weed?"

mrs.johnny depp- in my opinion, you killed any poetic notion with the vocabulary. on a better note, your free verse triply lined stanzas made your point, but failed to convey emotion in such a way that could relate to the standard reader.

comradered- Those rhyming couplets told the story quite well in the style of the great epics. bravo. although i do suggest, if you're to use this poem seriously, i suggest a rewrite to define the story rather than focusing so much on the rhyme scheme. put some time into it.

overall you guys did great.
