Sense Sonnet - Tickler

Given Up

Chewin' tobacco since a kid,
It's like a normal part of me.
Chewin' while doin' all I did,
'Cept while I was sleepin', maybe.
I slipped into a life of crime,
Stealin' stuff from others that had.
Was a good livin' for a long time,
Till DNA turned it all bad.
Testin' my spit from the crime scene
Pointed cops right to me and mine.
The prison warden is real mean.
No tobacco - the bottom line.

Who woulda thought that my damn spit
Would git me into such deep shit?
