Kicking Out the Cancer Sticks

I guess I quit smoking.

With my handy dandy Juul.

I’ve lost 2,

Bought 2,

Owned 3.

I quit for a date–

Of the Tinder kind,

Alongside, my mother’s

Recent battle with

The C word.

I’ve been surprised,

Such an easy switch…

Because,

I wanted it.

It’s nice, not needing to buy 2 packs every day or 2.

It’s nice, not smelling like smoke…

Though I never noticed it before.

It’s causing me to spend less time with the dogs.

Which sucks.

But my drinking allowance increased… quite a bit…

It was a lovely date.
