    CRACK ATTACK

    I AM IN A ROOM FULL OF ADDICTS JUST WAITING TO BE SERVED,
    ALL US ADDICTS PACING THE FLOOR IS THAT JUST ABSURD.
    WHEN I TAKE THAT FIRST HIT THE RUSH IS EMMENSE, NO LOOKING BACK I FEEL NOTHING BUT TENSE.
    THE MONEY FLOWED FROM MY POCKETS LIKE RAIN FROM THE SKY, JUST TO TRY CATCHING THAT INITIAL FIRST HIGH.
    WHILE CRYING FROM THE INSIDE WANTING TO HEAD FOR THE DOOR, I STAY PLANTED IN MY SEAT HOPING SOMEONE WOULD DROP A CRUMB TO THE FLOOR.
    THE SMOKE FLEW THROUGH THIS BODY AND INTO MY HEART, TEARING EVERY FIBER OF MEANING AND SOUL BITTERLY APART.
    I PUT MY HAND ON MY CHEST, CAN FEEL THE BEAT GET FASTER, THE DEVIL THROUGH ME A BONE , HE THEN BECAME MY MASTER.
    LOOKING BACK I AM SO GLAD I I COULD RECOVER, THE DEVIL CANNOT STEAL MY LIFE, HE NO LONGER CAN HOVER.

    A tremendously revealing narrative sketch, One reading it aloud can feel, without a stretch of the imagination, its startling and piquant vibrations. All round literary perfection and vivid passion captured well delineated by appropriate diction earns my rating of 10x10. Lady Baki 1's comment is illuminating and pertinent.

    This crack demon you write about here is but, one of the many in every country's social fabric that rips and tears apart souls, families, communities, loves, and whole lives... Crack is a devil, very true... But, add it to the almost endless list of senseless, mindless crimes against individuals and whole societies which include but, is not limited to; child abuse, spousal abuse, bigotry, social layering and profiling, prejudice, war, power mongering, and any other crime born of hate or indifference that exists to haunt any individual person, or entire peoples everywhere around the world... Yes, crack is bad, very bad... And, no less an evil amongst all creatures, than all it's cousins in wrong... A good write....

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
