The devil made marijuana so all my friends could sleep
in dreams of syncopation brought on by the ganja weed
I was never really listening in my anxiety
I could smell the devil's swirling smoke
but he never spoke to me
the devil made marijuana, amplified that THC
while his lesser generals spun in place and mouthed their obsequies
the burning brazier swung in place in synchronicity
but to live without that chemical
was no obstacle to me
