My
Drug Problem
I had a drug problem when I
was young.
I was drug to Church and
Sunday School on Sunday morning.
I was drug to weddings and
funerals of friends and relatives.
If I misbehaved at any of
those I was drug outside for......
I was drug to family reunions
and expected to kiss the aunts.
I was drug by my ears when I
was disrespectful to adults and teachers.
I was drug to the bathroom
for soap applied to my mouth when I used bad words.
I was drug to the woodshed
when I disobeyed my father or mother.
I was drug back to the
woodshed if I talked back to either parent.
Those
drugs are still in my
veins.
They affect my behavior -
what I do, say and think.
They are stronger than
cocaine, crack or heroin and -
If today's children had this
kind of drug problem,
The World would certainly be
a better place!
