Cranked up...

Fortunately I made it past that time in my young life...


Poem Artwork


 


Ah memories are sweet,


The crank in my memories was as well neat,


Twenty bucks for a little bag,


My neighbor with the Pagans, they never did me cheat…


 


Not good for my heart,


But did not eat, so no fart,


Went for three days strong,


May be to some a time I did wrong,


Was younger then, putting before the horse, the cart…


 


Surfed & swam for long hours,


Did not sleep, don’t be lookin’ at me with those glowers,


As I said before, I was much younger then,


Before I found out the rush I get from just doing Zen…

Dear Ed
Thanks for sharing a little of your past!
I bet you wouldn't change it, and now can appreciate Zen even more!
Enjoy the art-of-living!
Love, Suzie :-D

My rush now is to get a good 15-20 min
nap....hee, hee...
Yes, drugs are bad on all the body even
down to the tips of the toenails...
