Analysis of Local Cannabis Store. Handy and hopped up.



She took a bike hike
With the boys
To nearby cannabis merchant.
As if it were for milk or smokes
Or magazines’ news fare.
But here she was with youngsters
Set to trip the recreational
Gig, session, pain relief.
Who knew?
She took the youngsters. There.

How long would take til
Mamma’s pouch
Fell into littler hands
With consequences
Not so clear.
They scarcely understand.
Liberalism
Laissez faire
Let ‘s keep the rules to few.
The bribe a tool
To win some votes.
So cool and daring-do.
You like our class
Our horse’s ass.
Yes you really do.
