Criminal to Patient

Alice's addiction added anxiety,
buying bud became burdensome.

Constant confusion caused conflict.
Desired destiny disintegrated.
Expensive; earnings, exhausted.
Fortune forever falling.

Game gone, gratitude gained.
Happiness held her hand...
Intoxication in increasing increments
judgments joined justification.

Knowledge kept keys.
Law lets legal light.
Medical Mary makes mind melt.
No nonsense now!
Open operations omnipresent.
Passing public prejudices.
Quality, quantities, quicken.

Realization reigns.
Splendid, spiritual success!
Take that toke.
Ultimate understanding, unites.
Vice verses value.
Won with wisdom.
Xenophobe; x-chromosome.
Yearning, yet yielding.
Zones, with zealous.

    Excellent job with the prompt! Very clear focus, and easy to understand, without being to forthcoming. Best of luck in the contest!

    I really like this one,, though the X line messed me up for a second.
    I like the fact that you actually took one whole idea for this poem and managed to stay on track.
    Most writers don't focus while writing like this,, they just do abstract.

    Nicely done and thanks for entering.

    Nicely done -- and SO completely different than what I wrote! It is amazing to me how one prompt can inspire so many different outcomes. Makes me celebrate diversity of thinking as well as the other kind! Good luck in the contest!
