"Say No to Drugs"

A little late I know,
regret some seeds I sowed

Today,
knowing the highs and the lows,
(plenty of "lows")
I've no use for pride
and I repeat the mantra

I don't mean ALL mind-alterers
for ALL people in the world,
but I do mean
that I was mostly wrong,
that their addictive power of destruction
is amazingly strong

And that it's too much about money
that vile, controllable honey,
and that there's a bit
to the "gate-way" theory

What I'm really trying to say
is I hope that those who still can
will try another way
