I put the spike
in and push it a
little; withdraw, and there
it is.
That beautiful
rose bloom flash.
Push the plunger
and I 'm back in Eden.
Naked and no shame.
And in that moment
it's better than
sex and God and Heaven,
and chocolate.
I'm lost in a
storybook blue
sky, and I don't want
to be found.
Nothing matters, but the
sublime substance pumping
through my
veins that make me
immortal.
Icarus flying into
the sun until my
wings melt and I
fall back to earth
and do it all again.

Amazingly accurate description of a hit
You capture the elation
But oh that downer when it runs out
Superb write
I’ve never been there. You make it sound amazing. The flying sounds incredible, the fall back to earth a real downer. Great read Thomas.
I've not been there either, but I've been to the Co-op. That's elating - the highlight of my week! lol.
there is not a book in the world that wouldnt be a greater read with this in its pages Thomas;
oh my!!!!!
Never did drugs but reading this poem felt like I just did! What a wonderful composition!
Wonderful write..✍️
Confession or imaginative creation?
Either way well executed. Some can do it and lead a functional life, I'm told. Some don't make it:

I would very much like to jump into this book with you dear Thomas, exquisite poetry. Blue skies all the way. 🌹
My dyslexia was telling me it was going to be a poem about a woman of Superhuman qualities, of divine origin..
