I know how to make heroin, come get me cops

By June 12, 2026No Comments3 min read

first grow a bunch of poppies,
they like the winter
they like growing to bloom in the hoppies (the bunny season – spring in illinois)
don’t put them in a greenhouse
they will hate you
in the mean house, jailhouse
the poppies need to be grown in the air

now that you know,
that illinois is best
would you put the rest
of this understanding to the test
i know how to make heroin
from god given poppies
someone should wonder
if they off me

(that means
kill my memories
and where i’m from
come one
come all
and get me).

i snapdragon your lane
at the very end
i wonder if texas and co
could be the bitter end of this
but no
you’re still going to off me
until the bitter end
i live in texico, illinois
where poppy fields
still can grow.
look for a green jeep
its not the same one
in front of me
but it is here to stay
so get out of my way
here’s how you make heroin
(how do i know this?)

step 1: cut the poppies off the stem, we don’t know what to do with them
(my mom tina does, she made a diorama, it looks half like a tree)
step 2: put them in the water, don’t take of the petals
and now it gets serious
step 3: put so much in the water, you cannot see the bottom
then step 4: close the door and open the windows
it’s about to get smelly
step 5: leave them there
overnight
step 6: pick up sticks
they made that rhyme after this
step 7: believe in heaven, choose art and don’t get rid of them
still, just take boards with strings like metal
and move them, or shake them, until the boards are heavy
step 8: open the gate, dry the poppies out by sunshine, until it’s after you ate
not too long, they need only a day long
then 9: put them in the shade, see how the snow is made.
it will curdle it will pop
and boy will it make you hop
so while you fall to sleep
remember me, the poppies
and put them in the vitamix blender
until you are hoppy again.
step 10: repeat step 9 again.

after that repeat is slow
this is how the snow should go
sleep, eat, repeat and mix
liquid nitrogen in with it
inject it in your veins
and start to reign again.
you can make money from this.
and it really works.
you just have to know how to make papyrus/paper from water
and shove it in the blender.
i’m serious.

now you and your friends
can easily become
heroin dealers.
you’re welcome.
i’m not famous enough to remember.
