I wrote this poem for my brother who lost his arm due to meth use and Necrotizing Fasciitis(the flesh eating bacteria)
There is a Devil among us, so let me tell you my name, Methamphetamine, My friends call me Meth for short, if you try just one snort you could be up for a week or end up in court.
I can help you loose weight and get all your work done, before you know it the Devil will come, I will take over your being and all that is right, morning, noon and night, and when I do I will destroy everything that was once important to you. I have turned hero's into zero's.
It will all start one day when a friend offers that one little line and tells you to try it, it will be fine, in time snorting don't get you your high so you sit down and start to cry, and along comes another who says I will show you the other, he says you melt me down to liquid form, tourniquet on arm and needle in hand into a vein I will go causing you more problems than you'll know. Because what this friend fails to share is how a bacteria called NF lives in the air.
It only takes a push of the needle to get in, eating your flesh, your muscle, your tissue again and again.
You will be lucky my friend if only a body part is lost, Lives are seldom spared and souls seldom found.
Now that you know me what will you do? The decision is yours, that no one can undo.
If you decide to try me then you will see, a mess of your life it will be and I will destroy you and your family.
