I see. The body creates it's own highly addictive drugs and this can usually be sited as a main factor in why people will do things that make them appear to be on synthetic drugs. I'm glad to hear that this is coming from a sober mind. Somehow it seems to make the poem better knowing that.

It'll be like the film how to get a head in advertising, she'll appear as a boil in your neck that you try to lance, but winds up growing into a new head that lances you and buries your head as a boil in your neck..... or maybe not.

The line about the junkie and his syringe has little to do with herion, and more to do with a state of craving pain. + I have taken many substances and been temporarily hooked on a few, but not heroin.

This piece is a exaggeration of a period in my life well prior to taking any drugs, I don't take any now either. Heroin addicts are 'fucked up' people; having seen what Ive seen, I blame the reasons for them being 'fucked up' rather than the drug that can provide benefit to generally the terminally ill.

Something that I think everyone thinks at some point, put very clearly, although the last line one would suppose should mean that your tongue was trying to trick you; except your tongue tripping over imples that somebody else had caught you.... perhaps a little more than meets the eye here, or someone looking to hard???

I take the good doctor as a creation of the character Marvyn Hyde. (You need to change the footnote.) It portrays for me the process of self reinvention, which I can relate to. Alchemy thought you were talking about drugs, and maybe you are.

Your powms do not show up on the random list because they have been voted on recently. Only poems without votes show up there. Sorry about Caviot, it should be Caveat.
You'll get a lot more guff comments here on Poemranker than comments on your poem. If you like the interchange, that's good, if not you'll be disappointed. I try to sort gems from a trash heap, and figure the take is worth the effort.

I have been accused, elsewhere on Poemranker, of plagiarizing this poem. I ask you, has plagiarism occurred when I cite the source and describe how I use it?

oh, ok.
i don't like the way capitalizing looks most of the time.
maybe it's word equality. monospace fonts are my favorite; monoheight letters look like they fit here...

Nightmare On Elm Street.
Cheap joke. I wasn't trying to say anything bad about your poem. The dream logic in it is pretty good. Is there a specific reason for not capitalizing?

Sin City. Captivates the feel of gangster talk from films, I thought there were places where the piece could benefit from more elaberate use of language e.g
we Moved the bodies to the car
outside seating two Italian
>>>
We packed the stiffs in the motor
Outside seating two butch mafiosos
-pardon the spelling-

There is one problem with your argument here, being that once a poem is off the recent list, it tends not to be red, and just seems to sit there as a bad egg taking up space. It is not an issue of sensitivity, and if it were, there would be nothing to be sensitive about apart from the lack of comments. I only receive votes on new poems, perhaps because I have massively less work on this site, mine do not appear on random so often. Never the less. The reason I deleted the piece in question was that it had a lot of hits with the only comments being about whether you should vote or not, one vote from you, and another from someone to negate your 5, leaving the piece unconsidered and thus it was better to replace it with something that might be considered, allowing me to figure out what is and isn't accessible for people.

I deleted them because you all were arguing with each other about something that had nothing to do with the poem.
