Cigarettes and Ashes



The virus.
Turning us into heretics.
Imbibing us with the power to be strong.
Giving us the will to live on.
Relieving our minds of stress.
Decontaminating.
Reviving our souls.
Making us float.
Getting us high.
Giving us strength.
Giving us life.
Freedom.
The power to do all.
The power to unite.
The energy to build.
The potent drug.
Filling us up with life.
Reviving our souls.



The residue.
Glaring back.
White powder flying hither.
Leaving no breathing space.
Taking away all air.
Taking away hope.
Freedom gone.
Reduced to dust.
Sombre moods re-ignited.
But the flame drawn back.
Inching closer.
The searing heat overpowering.
Fire falling.
Disappearing.
The good feeling gone.
Forcibly taken away.
The remnant waste.
Leaving nothing in its wake.
