  5. My Struggle with Opiate Addiction

    I started Kratom nearly a year ago and i was not one for anything organic or from the earth but this stuff really does work! There is alot of negativity about this stuff but i ignore it.

  6. The Road

    Behind her lay a fading dusty ochre glow. Ahead of her, just above the thin grey line dotted with yellow down the middle, was an ever deepening dusty periwinkle. To either side of her, the soft piles of organic powder were like two boundaries across which she must not travel.

On the other side of the dirt boundaries, moldy green spots of varying sizes dotted the landscape....

  8. The Nightmare

    I wrote this when I was addicted to methamphetamine. A butterfly floating, free in the wind The nightmare still screaming in your head A love that is timeless, a will they can't bend Sometimes I think that I might be dead My freedom they take, I cannot resist I'm screaming inside "I'll watch you twist!"

  9. What a life?

    This article/blog is not about alcohol, I just couldn't work out how to get rid of that particular category so left it. Having said that alcohol also played a walk on walk off part of my life so it is appropriate I suppose. I know so little about the internet I didn't even know what a blog was so I looked it up and read about it on Wiki. I'm so bloody dumb. But one thing I'm not so dumb about any more and that life, people and myself. You could say that my decades of drug use have given me...

  13. Teller of Tales

    Tell me a tale like a spider spins webs, lead me by voice and feel. Show me the place where beauty still walks, And I'll tell you why it's not real.
