I used to wake each morning. Go straight to my dresser drawer. Light myself a cigarette. The sort that are against the law. But I never got anywhere. By using stuff like that. All I became was paranoid. And the munchies made me fat. Then I turned to alcohol. Started knocking back the beer. But I got done for driving while drunk. Now I cycle everywhere. It was then I discovered television. It showed me the way, sure enough. Now whenever I want to escape this world. I just say; "Scotty, beam me up"!
Reason for writing:
I'm not altogether sure.
Thought someone could tell me why.
