Multiple Maladies: The Addictive Personality (Spoken Word)

May 19th, 2017Addictions, Sam's Poetry0 comments

My drug of choice,

is not one over the other.

Instead it’s whatever my

heart desires or treasures.

 

Some days sex,

some days booze,

other days

a pack of smokes,

it can also include

bingeing on food.

I swing back and forth,

whatever the mood,

dictates my day,

drinking gin and juice,

can be another way,

to escape my wounds.

 

Poker and blackjack,

gives me a rush,

living life with multiple maladies,

Oh, that sums up

all my addictive tragedies.
