The monster bites
on its way down
Clawing at flesh
Struggling for purchase

Cutting vessels
Filling lungs
With traces of blood

The monster is not cruel
Like so many others
A gift he leaves
In the ruins and remains

A smile on the face
And a clot in the heart
Happines comes form the end of a cigarette, and it kills me a little more every time.
