Crazy Cannabis


I’m rolled Cannabis
& I’m a scandal
I’m always in your dark room
Getting lit up to get the groove.

I put you in a good mood
But I make you go out of the moon
When you’re in pain
I work just like a maid- simile

When you need to spark
Bark at your dealer
Buy me by the gram
Or buy me by the pound.

That boy always bought me
I was his best friend
And his partner in crime.

Every morning he lit me up
He took a hit,Puff puff , 
then he’d say “sup?”

With his eyes all red and puffy
He began to get tough.
And he couldn’t quit.
He got to attached
That he became detached from the world.

His mood began to change
He started acting strange.
I didn’t recognize that I could put him in such a mood
That would make him eat snack food.

It makes you feel like you’re in heaven
But deep down you’re putting yourself through hell.
I promise I won’t kill you
I’ll just make you have respiratory issues

He knew his system wasn’t working right
Continuous days with the same routine.
He started growing a bean.
A bean with many issues
That could make him use tissues.

He was running out of breath
It was like slowing turning to death
His lungs were slowly closing
It was disposing air.

His lungs were all black
And they were full of cracks.
He was hoping to get some help
But his lungs were no good.

He regrets using me
I now have him in an ambulance.
He’s taking his last breath...
Cough cough

That boy takes it all back,
Now he's going 6 feet underground
Now he's belowground.

  1. I enjoyed how you wrote your poem in the perspective of cannabis. It was excellent of how you used the boy to show what cannabis can do to you and the addiction that can be gained from it. Your word choices were very interesting and made me want to keep reading and hearing more whenever you presented in class. Great use of imagery, because I was able to picture everything that was going on in my mind. How many people in the United States use cannabis for medical treatment?
