Poetry Dice Entry: "Getting to know MJ"

Here I stand
Like a fish in the sand
Craving fountains of life
Bureaucratically denied
Forbidden fruit
From the tree of truth
I was full grown
When I first met you
By your grace
The sting of
Years of pain
Melted away
On a cloud
Of smoky gray
What vile injustice
Would try to withhold this?
Cordoned off
Keyless lock
Misery's accomplice
Not an addiction
But a chance at wellness
Nature's pride
Demonized
Wild claims
That I'll be reckless
Forget intoxication
You're my pain medication
Chasing shadows
Bringing relief
Peace, silence and sleep

Thanks for reading! Cannabis is illegal where I live and the blockchain is forever so...this one's completely fictional ;) ;) ;)...

Steem on!
