Art Official Intelligence

Hey I guess it's back to the drugs again
Take em all at once
Wherever I can shove em in
One goal in mind
To get fried to the point I cross my eyes and start stuttering
Past overdose hours ago
No worries I'm a pro
That's how I roll
Why hold on
All I want is to let go
Finger pointing from that high horse
I get high with bums and whores
I live my life how I like
Take a hike and live yours
Deal with your own addictions
Like being in my business
Ego tripping on that holier than thou mentality
You walk around with a head so dense
You're convinced I give a fuck shit piss what you think of me
The roadblock:Β 
We're on different levels mentally
Some things aren't meant to be
Destroying more and repairing less
Trying desperately to fix what can't exist
We're the living the definition of insanity
I got nothing to lose
So works for me
I'm willing to see how long you'll ride this fucker into the dirt with me
I get off on getting down and dirty
Cleanliness isn't really all it's cracked up to Be
Is anything
If you live a low life
It's hard to get let down
Last time we imploded I made the mistake of sticking around
Shoulda left town
We'll see if one more miserable rendezvous
Does the trick
And no love's left now
Daydreaming of the relief it would be
To just say what I want knowing there won't be immediate screaming
Sounds like paradise
What's life
A roll of the dice
I'd love an example when making a decision isn't a gamble
Keep on praying hoping and wishing
Put complete faith in rituals and superstition
Sometimes something works usually
I used to believe in myself
But who the fuck did I used to be
Living in some dark ages
With a wicked witch
And wicked thoughts that are outrageous
Bad vibes have become contagious
Flashing bright lights into the heavens at night with hopes aliens come take usΒ 
I can't take this much longer
Temper gets shorter when I get stronger
Paranoid and anxious
Living like life ain't shit
no one's worth trusting
Self inducing spontaneous combustionon

There is a lot of powerful images in the poem.

You did a good job with describing the life of an addict. There was an undertone of anger and hostility -- possibly due to the after effects of an addiction. More often than not, addiction can lead to many other problems in life. Trouble with relationships, income, work and goals can also be affected.Β

You could really add more to the poem. Perhaps, the addict recovers or, what drugs are being used, may make it even more powerful. Just thoughts on how you could improve. Thank you for sharing your poem.Β

I'm sad and nothing helps
Can't you see
Nothing can fix me
Fuck all this insanity...
