Freddy's filly flies forth
Fortune's fancy follows few
For fifteen frantic furlongs
Filly ‘Freddy’s Fancy’ flew.
Flawlessly furrowing field,
Fancy followed few.
First fifth, ‘fore fourth,
Fancy forward flew.
Finally finishing first,
Finding fame, forsooth.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
