Poem 64- Dangerous Chemicals

there is no room for honesty
when you're a liar.
they dont go together
you cant mix them up and hope for the best.
they react, combust and dissolve, destroy each other-
its a dangerous world, mixing with these chemicals.
inject them and they poison you
inhale them and they rot your lungs-
filling them with toxins ready made from hell.
burn them in water cylinders and watch them eat away at life
sometimes i watch as they eat away at the people consumed
by them.
truth, honesty, lies and false words,
each have their own distinct taste and scent-
they feed off human spirit, consuming and using.
turning each and every person against the next,
smash those vhiles, paint the walls with their fumes.
i feel them inside me and shudder,
so easy to give in, but i will not, i will not surrender to
those four tiny tubes of labled horror.
