    Very Good

    WOW! Skynard's "Smell of Death" is here!
    I really got twisted reading this. Which is a good thing. Addicts are always looking for that one perfect high: the very first high they ever had which is why they're addicts to begin with. The speaker is so optimistic ("better yet") and then dumps the reader on his/her ass at the end. I like that because it is in that way the real message comes through. I was twisted at the beginning and untwisted by the ending. Way to go!
    Grammatically, second to last stanza get rid of "things" and just change "were" in the last stanza to "we're" and it's done!
    Thanks for sharing this
