Whisky in Babylon Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Stumbling through the street all is dark all is quiet do not turn to the ally the stars above show no pity have no remorse for fools but go if it pleases you sink into your addictions wallow in self hate bathe in the filth do it if you love it so go if it pleases you does the bite of a needle feel good? is the tainted blood everything you thought? hmm, you want more, you need more? Fine than turn to the ally stretch out your arms long poison your body to live but remember the stars above show no pity have no remorse for fools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeldrinHor Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Whoa....thought provoking and haunting at the same time. I have some experience with just such thoughts...and no, not from personal usage, but that of a friend...I never cared for needles myself, taking my entertainment in other ways...a smoke here, a snort there. I'd tried many an escape thru the world of prohibited contraband, but never to the point of an addict. Living on the streets for two years made it rather difficult NOT to partake, at least a few times. But those were easily overcome....just wish cigarettes were as easy to defeat. Thank you, Whisky. Very nice poems, with deep meaning behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
