A Poem by Justin Daniel Stahl

Self Medication through a Slow Burn Death Stick
Star light star bright; loom above as I destroy myself tonight.
A taste of spice with a cough of contentment.
Future wheezes for a present of watered down thoughts.
One, two, three, four. Four times three per day. The socially acceptable suicide.

I really like this. Short, to the point and a great final phrase. It is true, a "socially acceptable suicide" but one at least that provokes some pleasure, albeit short-lived. Well done.

They should really ban the production, and not just "force" the companies to put health warnings and ugly photos on packets.
An interesting style of writing too.
