Priceless



Once being a drug addict
I would talk myself out of using.

Five
Ten minutes later
I was talking myself
Back into using
All over again.

Back then
$40 for a book.

Stealing
Handfuls of toothpicks
And mints
From the glass bowls
In the vestibule of the Thai restaurant
That I was using
Their bathroom 
To get high in.

Ha!

I left leaving
Thinking
I was a champion.

Priceless.
