Loosing a bet on a football game,
bad choice,
switching lanes without checking all mirrors,
bad choice,
cheating on your spouse,
bad choice,
un-protected sex,
bad choice,
washing your car during a wind storm,
bad choice,
deleting pictures off camera before saving them on PC,
bad choice,
quitting a job for all the wrong reasons,
bad choice,
getting into a fist fight with bouncer at a club,
bad choice,
allowing others that you care about to entice you with drugs,
bad choice,
trying it for yourself to see what it felt like,
bad choice,
hating what its done to you and your life,
knowing damn well it was a,
bad choice,
to ashamed to ask for help,
don't need others to tell you that you made a,
bad choice,
so just to function during the day you continue with this,
bad choice,
remembering vaguely what life was like before you let go with this,
bad choice.
I am 28 years old and shot meth for 11 years of mine, my daughters and my families lives.
I was introduced to it by people that I know to this day, I want you to know that even a "JUNKIE" had to have some of the other bad choices as well as the choice to use, and if you choose to believe that this could not happen to you,
THAT WOULD BE ANOTHER,
BAD CHOICE.

Very well stated. I like how you kept repeating that it was a 'bad choice'. It puts the responsibility where it belongs - on the person making the choice. So many people try to blame others (or something else) for their own poor judgment and those people just never seem to take the 'blame' for their own bad choices.
Good write.

very intriguing. i love the repetitiveness of the phrase 'bad choice' because its telling people that you really mean it when you are saying that something is a bad choice and the ending was mind blowing. kudos to this one dear.

This is kind of poetry what I am not used to see on this site, but, you have done it completely dressed in hones message and life decision to do or not to do something, even that could be, as you said bad choice
Wish you a lot of luck with your poetry and your life.

Excellent write. I particularly liked the start with all the choices people often make day to day without much consideration. It sets up wonderfully the rest of the piece. The repercussions of which are much more devastating.

wow
I loved this poem
allowing others that you care about to entice you with drugs,
bad choice,
trying it for yourself to see what it felt like,
bad choice,
hating what its done to you and your life,
knowing damn well it was a bad choice,
to ashamed to ask for help,
don't need others to tell you that you made a bad choice,
so just to function during the day you continue with this,
bad choice,
remembering vaguely what life was like before you let go with this,
bad choice.
you have put everything that some people are taught is bad into this little poem. I believe this should be published and used all over world. This is a beautiful poem.
Blessed be,
Hecate -
i like youre authors notes. lol, but that dosent mean i dont like your poem. well the form was cool, because of what you were righting about. and i dont relate exactly but i get all the bad choices things, cause ive made too many already. but this is good to shed light upon.
xoxox keep writting -
OH MY GOODNESS! I ADORED the repeating of "Bad choice" It just really gives you the message for this. The funny is, I can relate to this so much. I've made so many bad choices in my life, but without those, I would have never learned anything. I really enjoyed this write so much. Amazing job. Keep up the great work!
