Adulterated

I inhale the smoke
Permit its nicotine poison
Fill my weakened lungs
Hazy images blur my eye

I watch the world revolve
Happily in its twisted axis
Without me
Everything spins dizzyingly
And I am left staring like an idiot

I breathe in deeply
Ascertain that the poison entwines
Into my thinning blood

I light another cigarette
As one fizzles away
Delight in the thought
Of my stolen life minutes
From every intake
My life is draining out
I am not complaining
