Wes Quick -  I am A Cigarette
    
                        I AM A CIGARETTE

I am a cigarette,
I am given life by those who roll me up. I am set on fire.
breathed in by those who use me. My life is taken,
For pleasure and habit. But, I do not relinquish my hold
On life so easily. My life is lost, but for a price. When you kill me, I also kill you. When you breathe in my life, I take that breath from you. So, each time you fire me up,
You kill me without a second thought. But, I Will live longer than you,
For my life is replenished by the earth. My life is renewed over and over.
I will be here to kill you and all those who follow. There is nothing you can do to stop me.
So go ahead. Kill me. Take my life without a second thought.
Because, in the end, I will have your life, and many more.
I am a cigarette.
Roll me up.
Set me on fire.
Breathe my life.
Breathe my life.
Breathe my life.
And find that you can no longer breathe for your life. I am the victor in this battle.
I am a cigarette. Breathe my life.
My life is
Wes quick
