He pulls the shades
and bars the doorway
stuffs towels and dustcloths
in the doorjamb
dims the light
for his new purchase
pulling the wrinkled paper bag out
He produces medicine.
Decadence and Hedonism
He's always looking for a new kick
His chemistry is often altered
and we know why he's so demented
His illegal medicine
To all the poisons purchased in our time
we dedicate this idiotic rhyme
To all the venoms taken in our time
we dedicate this godforsaken rhyme
