SMELLS LIKE
SMELLS LIKE ROCK BOTTOM
People always talk about hitting bottom:
That was my bottom I haven’t hit bottom yet
I have hit bottom You have to hit bottom before
Could it be that those who have in fact hit bottom
are no longer here to make the long
climb back up ?
Or perhaps when we toss hit bottom
around we are building a massive scaffold of denial
We must deny the oncoming fast and furious rushing toward us bottom
Be skeptical Be vigilant and if you hear
yourself uttering the words I have hit bottom
know that you are in the wrong heaven –
