Haiku About Drugs
Drugs
They will make you see
Invented worlds—too bad
You will not see life
The Overdosed Human
He was on the curb
Veins purple, needle exposed
Overdosed on drugs
Not Dangerous
It's not dangerous?
That's what the drug dealers say
Be smart, stay alive
Crystal Meth
Battery Acid
Drain Clear, Ammonia
Oh, you are not sold?
They will make you see
