HERE WE GO AGAIN
Remember I wrote this when i was strung out!!! im keeping the spelling mistakes,im copying it exactly as is from my old notebook.
*in the opium garden*
traffic lites bounce off
the gun metal gray bridge
like twinkling xmas lites
on a stormy desolate nite
the Dope Man
clad in black
extends his skeletal hand
in welcome
"die a little death with me"
the city at nite
is an untamed creature
ite eyes reflected
in the glare
of headlites
its gnarled arms
are the withered trees
in the Park
He is Death Incarnate
Mr Dope Man
will he lead me
into oblivion this time
with his poison bag?
when the needle
hits my vein
i can feel the breeze
flutter through
the opium garden
i can taste
ancient knowledge
in my gut
