Smoke & Dust

darling,

are you being honest with yourself?

i see you sigh for the high, the paper rolls

and substance.


there's a pipe dream of emptiness, like fire to these lungs,

tainting your soul. and this air you breathe-a blanket of blackness,

masking reality, choking reason, clouding judgement.


you're enticed and do lust,

for moments too temporal but

it's as conception of death,

in the earth you'll rot to.
