Vices

I got drunk off of the water.
It was far too spiritous for me.
The purity was so tempting
That I drank it too quickly.

The air must not be legal.
I swear I'm fucking high.
It's laced with gold and silver,
And it's toxic to my mind.

I whore myself to moments
Where passion and love are birthed
I guess in everyone's vices
You can see what they are worth.

    voracity/voratious

    This is what comes to mind when I read the poem. i did enjoy it. It is a great little piece about intoxication of the soul with the instruments that surround us. i particularly like the last stanza.

    this was fun to read, i don't think i really relate to this poem but that didn't take anything away from it at all. um...a title. i don't really know what i'd titled this one either. lol. sorry, hopefully someone will come up with something good to match the good poem. keep it up
