Just Stupid

By Malcholm Dark

Inside my head is growing dim
I used to be active, but then
I've encompassed the seven sins
This life rests on needles and pins.
Yes I'm a daisy
Big, fat and lazy.
.
.
.
I guess I'm just stupid.

I seem to drink until I drop
I have tried, but I cannot stop
I've developed some liver spots
This life's a series of inkblots.
I know it's a sin
My whiskey and gin.
.
.
.
I guess I'm just stupid.

I met two new friends, meth and caine
Mixed and shot-up, I feel no pain
I lost ninety pounds, that's insane
This life, my heart cannot sustain.
I know it was dumb
I was so damn young.
.
.
.
Chiseled on my tombstone...
"Here lies stupid."

    An endless cycle of abuse leading to the grave, a horrible reality for some. We're all stupid at some point I guess. This was an amazing piece, conveyed the message so perfectly. Write on. Scholar
