Cracks form aside eyes of- tweakers. Heads down- shuffling. Stop. Smile. Beg. Might as well fetch too. Dark alleyway stops. Shoot up. Shooting down the block. Stop. Smile. Breathe. Heart racing. Stand- shuffle more. Place to place, Block to block, Light after light, Searing your pride. Downcast eyes. Prestine scowls. Plastic smiles. Stop. Smile. Beg. Furrowed brows. Echoed no's. Fold in half, "God bless." Yelled, **** no's. Who do you think you are? Get a job. Don't beg. Shuffle back. Empty parking lot. Shoot up. Stop. Smile. Breathe. Shoot up. Stop. Smile. Breathe. Shoot up. Stop. Smile. Breathe. Shoot up. Stop. Smile. Break. Body no more. Soul gone long before.

Dark Alley Dreams
Cracks form aside eyes of- tweakers. Heads down- shuffling. Stop. Smile. Beg. Might as well fetch too. Dark alleyway stops. Shoot up. Shooting down the block. Stop. Smile. Breathe. Heart racing. Stand- shuffle more. Place to place, Block to block, Light after light, Searing your pride. Downcast eyes. Prestine scowls. Plastic smiles. Stop. Smile. Beg. Furrowed brows. Echoed no's. Fold in half, "God bless." Yelled, **** no's. Who do you think you are? Get a job. Don't beg. Shuffle back. Empty parking lot. Shoot up. Stop. Smile. Breathe. Shoot up. Stop. Smile. Breathe. Shoot up. Stop. Smile. Breathe. Shoot up. Stop. Smile. Break. Body no more. Soul gone long before.
Be kind to those less fortunate than you. There lives are also important.
