Cocaine Man Laments Poem by O I

Cocaine Man Laments



Can I live again?
I wish this is feign
My soul has stain
It’s causing me pain
And no one has the blame
Except the selfish chase for gain
Which I could not tame
Government struck with cane
Leaving my skin with many lane
Now I am in shame
Also in infamous fame
I wish I never carried cocaine
To that country called Spain
Only to be deported in chain
Now I know I can never be the same
I shall surely go insane
Seeing my life’s light wane
This madness has made my dreams lame
Leaving nothing at which to aim
Except the drain
