Life’s A Drag
Smoked
like a trooper,
choked
heaved
sighed,
Died
like a fish.

Haha, yeh this is cute Merlin, I like it. I wonder if you are/have been a smoker? I'd be interested to find out to get a little closer to the intention behind this, is it "insightful black humour", you know the sort of humour that finds calling fags cancer sticks, slightly amusing. Or is it a non smoker's view . . . .
I'll put me nob on the chopping block and say -- you're a smoker.

I had a favourite uncle die from smoking cigarrets, drowned in his own sputem. Not the way I would want for myself.
Maybe you could send it off to Woodbines Merlin.

Smoked....like a fish/kipper? Is that how you end up? I like the shape of it and the physicalness of it all-is that a word?

I really liked this. I dont "really" smoke anymore. every now and then I do and this is how I feel when I spark up. A kind of morbid guilt, for killing myself is such a pathetic way. Dont know if that's what you're aiming for, but that's what it reminds me of.
