American Spirit

Contentment is such a fleeting state

Take a drag

 

Feeling like all is right until

Exhale

 

Wondering sets in and you question each choice

Ash it

 

Reading through coulda, shoulda, woulda,

Inhale, exhale, ash

 

Pointless exercises are just circles, really

But the thoughts travel the well worn road to

Niccotine stains.
