Movie stars make it look so cool
But RJ Reynolds only has ONE rule
Deliver the addictive drug, Nicotine
"We'll sell more product than EVER seen......."
A scientifically designed, drug delivery device
Kids'll pick 'em up and not think twice
Even though it makes your breath stink
Here comes mom, "throw 'em down the sink!"
I can't understand, is it worth dying for?
Just so you can get your foot in the door
Pick up a partner at the local bar
Wake up in the morning, don't know where you are
Ashtray on the table, full of cigarette butts
Light up again, we got things to discuss
Gotta have one right after sex
4000 chemicals in cigarettes
Suck 'em down, they'll kill YOU next
After all, they took my brother
DON"T let 'em take yours too.....

Dear Brother Poet Tony Taylor,
Your poem contributes a good message to all. Cigarette smoking is injurious to health. No doubt about it. Since 30 years I stopped the habit of smoking, since 10 years no more drinks, except wine, and because of that I am still healthy, Beware of all types of drugs, the killer, the cancer .....My applause, My love, My vote, Favorited.
Regards & Love

Hi Mr. M, thank you for that comment my friend..........Very cool that you were able to quit smoking, my mom smoked for 20 years and then one morning she just put them down.......NEVER smoked again......she hasn't had one in 36 years.........congrats on that my brother.........smiles...........T xx
Well done T`. I absolutely hate the damn things. They smell awful and Cherie is right they age the skin and the mouth. You can tell just by looking at someone that they smoke because of what it does to them. They are as addictive as heroin and just as poisonous, even poisonous for people around a smoker. It was the best thing to happen when the government made it illegal to smoke in public buildings. It looks terrible to see someone smoke, there is absolutely nothing cool about them. Well done for a great piece. I love you sweety. G xx
I TOTALLY agree with you girlfriend.........they are "Death Sticks" to say the least........and they add a bunch of crap to make them even more addictive...........looks like I hit a nerve here............thanx so much sister girl..............smiles..............T xx
I support you Tony for this fantastic write,this is awful to see Kids getting addicted to not only nicotine but other addictives too.Its heartbreaking though.Brilliantly executed.
Cheers
PIUSHA.....thank you for your kind support sister.........I agree, it's incomprehensible to me that people allow children to become addicted to ANYTHING.........I appreciate your words sweet poetess........your friend and admirer.............T xx
