Sucker4drugs (E-book)

This collection of poetic works chronicles the harrowing journey through addiction, despair, and the pursuit of recovery. Rooted in raw street experiences and personal struggles, the poems explore themes of substance abuse, violence, incarceration, and ultimately, redemption and hope.

The early verses expose the destructive cycle of addiction, vividly portraying the chaos of angel dust (PCP) use and its ripple effects on individuals and communities. Through characters like “Dirty Diana,” “Derek,” and “Black Who Stutters,” the anthology paints a haunting picture of lives unraveling under the weight of drugs, betrayal, and systemic neglect.

As the narrative deepens, the poems shift toward introspection—revealing the emotional toll of addiction, the loneliness of incarceration, and the fragile yearning for change. Pieces like “Lost in the Process” and “No Sobriety for Dust Heads” confront the inner battles of relapse, grief, and self-worth.

Yet, amidst the darkness, a powerful light emerges. The collection evolves into a testament of resilience, faith, and transformation.

The “Day One” through “Day 28” series provides an intimate, day-by-day account of recovery—capturing the raw vulnerability, setbacks, and triumphs of rebuilding a life free from addiction. Through reflections on identity, purpose, and community, the author reclaims his voice and invites others to do the same.
