Temptation

Temptation to press the bottle to your lips
Temptation to feel the burn down your throat
Temptation to have the weightless feeling
Temptation to run, jump and float
Through the air.

Temptation to breathe in smoky air
Temptation to hold the pipe in your fingers
Temptation to see the world spinning around you
Temptation - just one more moment to linger...

One more pull. One more gulp.
Depressant turned elixir.
Upper turned into small... natural fantasies.

Clouds turning red and the sun sets low
But in your eyes they're turning green and blue and bright pink...
Every colour of the rainbow.

The stars seem to be starring at you as you run through the grass
Tripping and tumbling over nothing
Just your imagination?
The stars are jumping; they're following you everywhere you go
They're trying to catch you.
They're coming lower to the earth, like a speeding racecar.
No... not the stars.
The cops are.
