Powdered happiness
by joetwo
It started slow
Dose by dose, spoonful by spoonful
Little aliquots of powdered happiness
Available to all, for a price
#
Reaching nirvana is simplicity itself
No meditation or soul mate required
A jab to the vein, breath in through the nose
Will bring you straight, no go back, no detours
#
Dangerous are the economics of the game
Inflationary pressures on the powder means more over time
Prices getting higher, on the body, on the pocket, on the soul
A price that eventually gets too high
#
It always starts slow
Those little doses of happiness
But evermore does it grow
The eternal cost of a quick-fit route to oblivion.
nice spin joe.
addiction… nice metaphor
