Say No To Drugs! Poem by RAJ NANDY

SAY NO TO DRUGS!

Our multi-faceted life, never hesitates to
provide,
Both reality and illusions!
With errors of perception, leading us even
to momentary periods of hallucination!
Yet in our erroneous persuation, of seeking
instant bliss,
At the fall of a hat, we take to drugs and
narcotics!
And in trying to make those deceptive and
illusive moments last,
We soon become slaves to poisonous drugs!
Which ultimately saps our mental strength
and vitality,
Making us refuse to face reality!

So let us all say no to those poisonous drugs,
And never suffer under any self-induced
delusions;
Since running away from the realities of life,
Shall never be the ultimate solution!
Therefore let us now with a firm resolve,
And always be very emphatic,
To say NO to those drugs, and all those
hallucinating narcotics!
