CIGARETTES (UGH!)

Contributed by Del on Monday, 2nd June 2003 @ 06:35:00 AM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems




Don't think you're so smart,
When you smoke that cigarette.
You're shortening your life minute by minute,
Now just don't you forget.

Oh! today you're feeling super!
There's nothing you can't do!
Smoking is still the 'in thing'
How can it be bad for you?

It's bad for you in so many ways,
I'm sure you're aware of this.
Unless your loved ones also smoke,
How could they bestow you a kiss?

Cigarettes have an odor
That's simply overpowering.
You can't get rid of the stink you have,
Even with daily showering.

You lungs were always so pure and clean,
Till you smoked that cigarette.
Since all that tar is buildng up
CANCER is what you'll get.

Do you really need that pacifier?
No matter what price you pay?
No, you really don't need that crutch,
Throw those DAMM killers away.

Very wise words. Wish I had listened to all the people who told me not to smoke and that I would get addicted. Now I can't quit. I have tried so hard so many times and it is just too addictive.

nice poem. i don't agree totally, but the intention is well. actually, it seems to be the "in thing" now, to hate cigarettes. lots of people die in car wrecks every year, why don't we all stop driving. i guess it's a perspective thing. in any case, great write.
