You Smoke

by Joe Cramer

You smoke

and choke.

You're broke.

You gasp,

you grasp

at the task.

Finally at last

you die.

Everyone

knows why.

So why lie?

I cannot believe so many still smoke. They are so bad for you and just consider how much cigarettes cost!! ACK! I agree with your sentiments Joe.

Can't say I share your pain, but I'll still say you make a damn good point.
