Seeking a Way to Detox

Bankrolling their own debts...
By borrowing funds from foreign resources,
As a means to prolong the affects of regret!
Is way off the course of an announced recovery!

But an addict is never satisfied...
With those solutions best to try!
Instead of seeking a way to detox...
To eliminate the presence of cravings.
A delivery is sought to block the problem.
And administer to just the habit.

Hoping what is left that goes unidentified...
Magically disappears,
From the mind and from the eyes!
Only to inflict another remedy more effective.
And with crossed fingers...
Hope truth injected is not detected.
