OPIOID LOVER <\/p>\n

by Bill Kochman<\/p>\n

01-01-2017<\/p>\n

Oh you just love your opioids,
\nThey just take that pain away,
\nBut are you taking way too many,
\nMore than your doctor had to say?<\/p>\n

Has need turned into addiction,
\nConvinced that so much is okay,
\nHave you so deceived yourself,
\nThinking you won’t have to pay?<\/p>\n

You thought that you could cheat,
\nAnd get your highs a legal way,
\nBut if you keep popping pills,
\nYou’ll meet the dirt someday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
