Motorhead
Watch the sunrise again
Not by choice
By amphetamine
Just a dab to get through the day
Not a necessity
Not a problem
Just to get by
I'm so
Busy
Busy
You wouldn't understand
This to do
That to do
Chasing the white rabbit
I've not got time for a tea party
Alice what's the matter
every where I go faces staring
not paranoia
just
cautious
cautious
don't need any help
need no solution
I don't suffer from drug addiction
bit to get by
bit to get by
not an issue
not a drama
Won't be shown on panorama

| You really captured the random, lightening speed thoughts you expect from a drug addict. Very well written. |

| Excellent. Not talking about addiction, but portraying addiction itself. The white rabbit reference strengthens the piece. It reminds me of an English class during the 70s and the teacher playing "Go Ask Alice" on the reconrd player. (It was a liberal school I guess.) |

| The lack of punctuation in the poem really quickens the pace, it's like the poem is on speed itself. I love the last line: 'won't be shown on panorama', fantastic!! |

| Seems to be quite different than what I am used to from you ... impressed with the creativity. The energy sounds like my little girl (smile). Nice work, friend. |
