little death stick

"its amazing how such simple things, could be the cause of your absent minded death. simple intricate little things, cigarettes, pills, ropes, anything really. they can be manipulated to cause your life to end. i want to focus on one thing in particular, cigarettes. they seem so harmless, depressing really. how the soft clouds of smoke twirl around the piece of paper, fire, tobacco, nicotine, and whatever else is shoved into the little death stick. some people are lucky, they could smoke for their whole lives and only suffer coughing and breathing issues. some although, are less fortunate. these little sticks of smoke corrode one of the most valuable organs in your body, your lungs. they fill them with char and smoke. some smoke to have fun, but some frankly just smoke to die. we're all going to die, there's no escaping that. but death isnt all that bad, its living thats tough. i think thats why people seek smoking, drugs, and all those other life threatening things. we're all stuck in a labyrinth, that labyrinth being life and suffering. people escape it numerous ways, slowly but surely, or straight and fast. some seek the pang of a bullet into their skull, some seek alcohol coursing through their veins, and some just seek the slow, dwindling death by smoking. bit by bit, stealing your years."
