In Lieu Of

there's something to be

said about cigarettes,

but it's been said before,

I'm sure. So in lieu of

a good write, crafted

thoughtfully between

slow draws in of the

thing that will be my

death, I'll write this.

This has a really interesting kind of cynicism that, somehow, is not unkind. I imagine you gazing at the smoke and smiling a little before setting pen to paper (or fingers to keys). I adore the last line particularly.
