In a tiny little room,
Here I am.
Sitting all alone.
A small wooden pipe
And a piece of bubblegum are in front of me.
I have a decision to make.

I begin the analyzation in my head.
Which is better,
Which is worse?
The pipe appeals to my eye
Like it does to so many others.
Four boys want to hand it to me.

But, no!
That smoke…
It will fill up my lungs.
Choke my very existence.
And leave me lost.
Lost from God,
Lost from life.
It will brainwash me.
Leave me…obsessed.
Obsessed with nothing but….
The pipe.

I think about the bubblegum now.
Again, four boys try to hand it to me.
I can taste the sweetness of it.
The pureness.
It will not hurt me.
It has not hurt anyone yet.

But, the sweetness sickens.
The sugar starts to affect me.
It destroys my sense of wrong.
Leaves me happy.
Completely without fear.
Without voice.
Without will.
Without life.

I leave the tiny little room.
The pipe in the left hand.
The bubblegum in the right.
The pipe is my future.
The bubblegum is my past.
Both are my present.
And eight boys try to devour rocks.
Their teeth….
Fall at my feet.
