Opium

Opium… inhale… inhale the tender smoke
and chase
The dragon.
Fly over lands and seas, go all the way to China…
Come, find a soft girl and sleep in the poppy fields.
Make love with her and call again
The dragon.
Opium – what a beautiful chant!
It eases your pain,
On a plate it offers the transcendental sleep.

Exhale it and return to a putrid world?!
NO!! You want the freedom, don’t you?
Then take the freedom in your hands!

Inhale and let your lungs get
The sweet, warm touch of opium.
