Survived Poem by Rodney Dufault

I've survived just like the rest of you folks.
Survived the damned man who made me, a joke.
Survived being choked and smoking that coke.
Survived being broke and the harshest words spoke.
Survived through the pain and going insane,
and the evil motherfucker who took over my brain.
Survived the belief that I had nothing to gain.
Survived through the storms and the floods of my pain.
I've even survived through a bottle of pills,
woke up the next day with my health meter filled.
Survived the Ammityville's and the Hamburger Hills.
I've got multiple kills, but I battle me still.
