Very powerful work. It shows the absolute despair in almost every line. Very descriptive and sad. Great rhythm and wonderful verse.

This is a trip though loss of controlling. I liked the imagery and story you told in a richly woven poetic vogue. This was my pleasure to have read and written this response for... John

WOW! You have described the plight of drugs and the living Hell itcreates for those who let themselves succomb to it. "You cant help anyone who wont help themselves" as my DAD used to say, and it certainly comes true when trying to help any addict addicted to anything. "I don't have a problem" is usually what you hear followed by "Leave me alone>" At that point, nothing you do will do any good. I hope from my review you know that you did an awesome job. Ray

Drug addiction is an ugly disease all around. Rotten skin spoke the most to me as I remember an uncle who was so scarred and rotting from needles, he stunk. Good work.

Wow I feel your despair when I read this. Very well written. Easy to follow. I loved it. "Highway of Loathing" and "the joy of high" are some phrases I like. Great job.

I know this is about drug addiction. I also know the bi-polar experience does not reach either the highs or the lows within that addiction. I still very much know, at a lesser leverl, the experiences here.

You did a very good job of expressing this horrific swings.

Congratulations on writing a poem that is dark and entertaining. I understood this, even though I despise the thought of drugs. I mostly liked how you had the words in blood red and a black background.
Good work.

Hullo Dklrdmcches ....

Every time I read your writing, I wonder why it is that you pen such thoughts? Are they real in your life?
There is just one small change to suggest ...

* You have - Injecting the syrum into ... did you mean syrup ... because there is no syrum in my Dictionary?
Actually, those who are victims of drug-abuse are greatly to be pitied - not just through words but through prayers for their deliverance from the clutches of the evil one who inspires such things.
Love from ...... Nanette Mary.

Pretty vivid imagery you draw here. Well constructed, albeit in an unconventional way, but that's poetry for ya lol. It does convey the message well though and that's despair. I like the style, well done

Hi Dklrd

Mmmmm a very dark and deep poem about taking drugs and the effect it has on your body as well as your mind.

I do wonder if your poem is fiction or non fiction? Not sure that is is written from a drug addict but I may be wrong!

Love the pic.

All the best, Pete
