I AM AN EXAMPLE

I CAN'T GET ADDICTED IS WHAT I USED TO SAY,
I CAN DO ANY DRUG AND THEN JUST WALK AWAY,
I CAN GO TO ANY BAR AND ONLY DRINK JUST ONE,
BACK WHEN I WAS SOBER AND STILL HAD FUN,
YEAH MAYBE AT FIRST THIS WAS ME,
HEADING DOWN A ROAD WHERE I COULDN'T SEE,
ONLY IF WE KNEW WHAT CAME ALONG NEXT,
I AM AN EXAMPLE OF A LIFE IT HAS HEXTED.

Short and sweet, right to the point. Although the great thing about being human is that you have a choice. Just know that whatever path you choose, we all make our own graves, it's just a matter of how deep you want to dig! Great poem.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
