I Am Into Drugs Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

I Am Into Drugs

Rating: 5.0


Drugs are in various multifarious forms
have many uses and assorted applications
pharmaceuticals produce to treat diseases
for the purpose to insure a man's good health
specifically to treat diseases by annihilating
all the known bacteria and viruses affecting man.

Drugs are both good and bad
Good drugs cure many diseases
Bad ones destroy the human body
Like many sick people I am into drugs
But mine are of medicinal values to cure
While others dire to take meth and marijuana
Yes it is a matter of personal choice to make.

I suffer diabetes and chronic kidney disease
Which I have to take the doctor's prescriptions
Like insulin, potassium citrate and sodium bicarbonate
To control my blood sugar and alkalize the pH of my urine
So that I may be able to live longer existence than die sooner
But sometimes drugs bring unexpected results which are bad than good.

Me is one of those who depends on regulated drugs
but somehow I was mistaken as drug dependent or addict
as I was included in random drug test to check amphetamine
if present in my system as ordered by the management I work with
it was triggered when two of our co-workers were caught selling shabu
the result of the screening was that mine is subject for confirmatory
as it turned out to be positive on the initial testing using test kit.

Such act licked out as the test was done in public view of many
was it supposed to be the practice in running the test in full view?
Is it not that confidentiality is the primary concern of the analyst?
How about a man's reputation who is good but got a false(+)result?
