I want to explore every nook and cranny
the cunning of this disease

Not only to expand poetry
but to warn others of the danger

Some say the only good addict
is a dead one

They might just have their way
but so many depend on me

As the doctor with a chalkboard attached to his hand
reminds me it’s my duty to stay alive as long as possible
