We Need To Talk About Weed

Weed can get you arrested,

weed can you make you broke,

weed can make you disconnected,

weed is it really worth the smoke?

 

I've seen what it can do to people,

the changes in personality, the changes

in reality,

the false sense of knowledge,

the false sense of calm,

weed like any other drug can lead you away from God

 

Making it your idol, a daily ritual, it becomes a part of you,

you defend it with the utmost zeal just like any other religion,

 

So to beg the question after all this, is weed really harmless?

is it really just a plant, a substance meant to be used every day?

Does it really get rid of the pain, or do you just think it does?

The Jury Is Still Out

We allowed nicotine, still allow harmful amounts of sugar in foods. THC, like a pain killer - 4 hours of reief. The problem is addiction and u no us, we overuse everything we can buy legally. If I had cancer, I'd move to Colorado. That said, the chemicals in smoking anything will lead to cancer and bad lungs, so why destroy the temple that is your only home. It is a bad news century so far this 21st. -Lady A-

Anything in moderation. Its

Anything in moderation. Its just hard to like pot heads when you don't smoke pot. Every once in a while is fine. But everyday multiple times a day becomes excessive. I wrote this poem about my roommate who I had a falling out with. The other poem about opiod addiction was about another roommate I had. I actually liked him better, because he didn't smoke pot. Different drugs cause people to act differently. The worst thing is when they go through withdrawal. Its like bi polar 101. I don't do drugs except drink beer every once in a while. I prefer to do other things that help me relax like listen to Metal and write poems. But I had to cut back on listening to metal so much. Because, I started noticing myself getting too devoted to it. Everything in moderation is key.
