Favorite Quote:
I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason.


The snake eats its tail

Its a never ending cycle

Repetition to what it once considered history

The snake eats its tail

And as hard as it tries

The snake never fails

To once again eat its own tail.


The author's comments:

In this poem I am referring to myself as a snake. I am stating how I commit the same mistakes over and over. It is like a snake who is slithering in a circle and eats its own tail. When it regrows, it eats it again.
