Nicotine: Queen of Mean

Nicotine, the Queen of Mean, is the most toxic substance in tobacco. A small drop of nicotine placed on the tongue can kill a person. Nicotine serves a unique position in helping people derive pleasure from tobacco and to become addicted to it. Nicotine’s abilities qualify her to stand unchallenged as the Queen of Mean. She lures young and old to absorb tobacco into their bodies and brains, caring not a whit about the final results: premature death. She freely gives of herself to enable smoke, steam, and taste to contribute a sense of pleasure. Her appeal is irresistible to almost everyone who takes her in. She won’t admit it, but she also compromises and poisons life itself.Truly, Nicotine is the Queen of Mean.
