#toxins
Herbicide rich farm lands.. Pesticides on every lawn.. Long live the American dream! Capitalism is a long lost song.. Roundup sprayed ski slopes and golf course turfs! Bucket list of old rich folks dying of cancers.. City water that stinks.. The ink of our receipts.. Testosterone levels, rapidly deplete.. Year’s of no regulation, Aluminum in the sky.. They obviously want to make sure… No one gets out alive!!

No One Gets Out Alive
The drab brown butterfly sits on a white blossom incautiously drinking honeyed poison.

Turn Back Now
What if there were toxins that fill the air, And all us people do is roam around without a single care, Until one day, That someone finds a way to say "Hey, this isn't fair,"

In The Air
Fear, hate, and judgements are all toxins. Rid yourself of such things and you get rid of insecurities, loneliness, troubles, separation, and war, to open door to happiness and freedom. StarBG © 2017

Quote For A Friday
The first time my lips touched a cigarette, I cringed at the taste but I ****** and puffed the toxins anyways. smooth. It was menthol. I didn't know what that meant. I didn't care. I just wanted to be cool with my friends. They were 14, I was 12. 'Mature for my age'. I had fitted in. But was smoking that cigarette really, really worth it? I haven't talked to those 'friends' in 6 years.

Cigarette.
she is a volition, the love of my life. took her for one night, and lost all my sight. jumping all around the light of the room the bright over the gloom pleads goodbye to misery. i am here to stay the one who's true every day, always new i will show you the way. bleed on stage, and on the page. lead to tear, and lead to stain. this is pain. gone from my system no one to listen the end is near, loud and clear. know i've said this but she really was on the tip of my tongue. small and pure, small and pure, never again, shall i fall for your lure.

molly
*I can feel the tingle start at the tip of my tongue I feel the burn in the pit of my stomach The lightness washing over these heavy limbs The weightless impossibility The drunken bliss A feeling I miss With each shot I forget your face Each drink of this liquid pain killer Takes me a step away from the memories That haunt me*

Poem of the Drunken
I could barely keep my eyes open. I was so wasted. So drunk, I forgot my name. So buzzed, I failed to remember my worth. So intoxicated, I don’t remember exactly what happened. All I can recall is the fact that I was so incredibly tanked. Only, it wasn’t alcohol I was getting high off. No, it wasn’t *** or **** coke, or molly, beer or whiskey, tequila or ***** My mother warned me about all of those. But she, among other people, “forgot” to warn me about the living, breathing drugs; the ones they don’t tell you about in school. The tan, brown eyed, black haired ones. The ones with the tender kisses after every hit. The ones with the charming smiles and the sparkling eyes. Those are the ones no one ever mentions. Although, they are the worst for your health; emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual… no one gives you the precaution. And soon enough, you find yourself burned out, shaking, dizzy and nauseous because of this one fatal addiction. The name of this cruel intoxication? The Player.

Fatal Addiction
The back of my head pulses Rosey, warm cheeks under my Very sore and sensitive eyes ill wash my body and the soap Dilutes my skin but The toxins are from within Days of being away But i cant stay And feeling as though in a rut Shut the door Alone time

Gospil of ********
Tiny hands barely able to hold a bottle, now drink out of one,containing toxins. Tiny ears that used to hear bad words and coo, now spit them like wildfire. Tiny mouths that would be forced to take icky medicine, now pop pills and insert drugs into their being. Tiny eyes looking at life as a breeze,no cares in the world,now turn into eyes that crave attention but don’t care what we have to do to get it We are spoiling the pure bodies we once had. People are sleeping around, when I remember the worst thing you could do is hand-hold. We take the things we had as kids, and ruin them. We honestly take the cuteness and turn it into ... well that's for you to decide. You pick if your morals are guided with a compass, or thrown away like garbage. Who am i to judge? But I've also learned,these days,My darling.. This is adolescence.
