The Passing of Hermione

Sometimes, this being on call lark sucks ................... BIG TIME

The Passing of Hermione

 


From her being some kind


of groovy


hippie chick, to heroin chic,


in under three


whole calendar months


was surely


some kind of record ..


But whatever


the Coroner eventually says,


the fact remains ..


While still fresh out of rehab


Hermione finally


mainlined her good self away


Beneath a bridge,


that will never bear her name ..

Hermione such a pretty name and such a sad ending, especially fresh out of rehab. Her family and friends will be devastated, that I do know. Sadly some you can't help, because they can not help themselves and neither can you always be there for them. It's like waiting for the inevitable, knowing it's on the cards.

I guess all that can be said is that age old warning....Don't do drugs. The descent and decline into a life of addiction is rapid and usually never ends well. Dying, forgotten, underneath some bridge, somewhere, is a stark, yet unfortunately, truthful image. Painted well by your pen. ❤

Strong lines dear N, truth told even in a brutal still it is real and happening. "unnamed" people die in unknown places for what?! You know... in my opinion addiction is one of the ways to control humans, those at the top who produce and sell it to the smallest groups, can You tell me if they are also addicts? most of them are NOT! and that TELLS A LOT!
