Vaping

A young white woman is vaping and exhaling a large white cloud of vapor while holding a vape device.

This poem was written by Karen Gonzalez, a student at CSU Channel Islands.



It’s really easy to get lost in the mist 


All the sweet flavors just come in a twist


Just to become popular 


It all becomes a blur


Needing to be accepted 


Not knowing that you’re being affected


Getting lost in the crowd 


Only exhaling clouds


“It’s not as bad as cigarettes”


With all the sweet flavors there are no regrets 


“It doesn’t contain nicotine”


Just another lie that they tell the teens.
