In a small, cement room with a little, frail cot Where the polluted are exiled to whither and rot, I awaken to nightmares in this cell of isolation, Harshly struck with a sudden, urgent realization: All the horrors I have caused have culminated to this event To which my friends and family I must humbly repent, And in the mirror, I reflect upon the acts that I commit Which impale my intoxicated spirit and force me to admit: I am dependent upon these chemicals that have become my vices As I endlessly search for the promise of their Artificial Paradises, Desperately seeking our diluted visions of a false utopia, Found only as we succumb to this ignorant, imagined euphoria.
