Addicted
To words
Ingesting them through
My ears and eyes
Altering my consciousness
Rails of sentences
Bumps of two-bit words
Lines of lyrics
Kilos of quotes
Cracks of comedians
Always looking for
New words for a new high
Triggering brain cells
Altering reality through
Perception and projection
Inferences and implications
Inflections and intentions
Based on the purity
Of the sources
Do they come from loose lips
Or researched reports
Context elevates their effect
The supply of content is endless
My best connections are

“I Want A New Drug”
(The following was chopped up for content)
“Yeah-eah!
I want a new drug
One that won’t make me sick
One that won’t make me crash my car
Or make me feel three feet thick
I want a new drug
One that won’t hurt my head
One that won’t make my mouth too dry
Or make my eyes too red
//
I want a new drug
One that won’t spill
One that don’t cost too much
Or come in a pill
I want a new drug
One that won’t go away
One that won’t keep me up all night
One that won’t make me sleep all day
//
I want a new drug
One that does what it should
One that won’t make me feel too bad
One that won’t make me feel too good
I want a new drug
One with no doubt
One that won’t make me talk too much
Or make my face break out
One that won’t make me nervous
Wondering what to do”
– Huey Lewis and The News (With apologies)
