Big Pharma has a hold on our country. Without wealth, there is little healthcare and our people suffer for it every day. The cost of mental health is especially high, as it is still not considered a priority of healthcare providers.
what a pill this is?
the kind Alice would turn away
nothing to make me envelop a room
or petite to a caterpillar
merely a stabilizer
an evens for my odds
what a particular sensation
one of calmed calamity
sedated sedition
or a swallowed sob
now my mind can be trusted
at the cost of American medicine
the Queen of Hearts keeping my peace
captive in orange bottles
she cries, “Out of your head!”
but with a humbled confidence
I can at least crush white roses closed in a fist
and admit who I am
