These Drugs Will Kill Us

Rating: 5.0


I thought I've seen it all
But No!
There's more...
Just yesterday-
Many were put on trials-
Some lost their lives,
Others were given more drugs.

Legal or not-
We're suspended on this ledge of a bill-
Just to cope,
This demanding age will need a pill
Or else a rope.

I thought I've seen it all
But No!
Just the other day-
My daughter and my wife,
Sick from a drug...
Injected to protect!
In fact, they're tired-
Fed up...
Infected and disappointed.

Nobody wants to die from a thrill,
Scientifically enticed, its a big deal-
Now everyone has an edge to kill,
People are using drugs for real.

Just the other day
We all heard the President-
Speaking delusional, Under the influence,
Am I irrational, Well think about it,
It'll depend if you're on drugs-
Or you need drugs.

Oh shit they'll be more drugs!
-to buy time for happiness,
Even to kill depression-
-or to feed life's craziness,
Let's escape this evil oppression.

Not so long ago
we learned-
Two giants have merged,
One with seeds, I entail...
The other holding medicine,
A match made in the abyss of hell.

I thought I've said it all
But wait...
There's more in medicine-
In the pocket of science,
I've seen the perversion of life-
Paraded with confidence.
Creation distorted, botched-
Licenced and aborted,
Perfect bodies promoted-
Financed and adopted.

These drugs have killed us!

A smart write! Big pharma did a number on people by their lies and marketing of opioids. They found a way to bottle false happiness and put it in a capsule!
