EVA:Testimony of an Addict

   So now, Little Man, you've grown tired of grass, L.S.D., goof balls,
cocaine, and hash; and someone pretending to be a true friend said,
"I'll introduce you to Miss Heroin."

   Well honey, before you start fooling with me just let me inform you
of how it will be, for I will seduce you and make you my slave; I've
sent men much stronger than you to their graves.

   You think you could never become a disgrace and end up addicted to
poppy seed waste. So you'll start inhaling me one afternoon, you'll
take me into your arms very soon.

   And once I have entered deep into your viens the craving will drive
you wildly insane. You'll need lots of money (as you have been told);
for darling, I'm much more expensive than gold.

   You'll swindle your mother, and just for a buck, you'll turn into
something vile and corrupt. You'll mug and you'll steal for my narcotic
charm, and feel contentment when I'm in your arm.

   The day when you realize the monster you've grown you'll solemly
promise to leave me alone. If you think that you've got the mystical
knack, then, Sweetie, just try and get me off your back.

   The vomit, the cramps, your gut tied into a knot, the jangling
nerves screaming for just one more shot. The hot chills and cold sweat,
the withdrawal pains, can only be saved by my little white grains.

   There's no other way, there's no need to look, for deep down inside,
you'll know that you are hooked. You'll desperately run to the pusher,
and then you'll welcome me back to your arms once again.

   And when you return (just as I foretold), I know that you'll give me
your body and soul. You'll give up your morals, your conscience, your
heart and you will be mine until Death do us part.
