SPOILER ALERT !

----

this poem shall have no images of

Slit wrists

Battling jealous *******

Heart thumping dependency turning

Into insipid hateful rants

No appeal to your poetic ego

Describing you as the most sensitive

Creatures known to man

No phony poignant pain / pointing

Toward dramatic suicide

No

None of these

/////

and why ?

//////

Because

My love

A smile is a frown
Turned upside down

So let us laugh
Laugh at the tragedy of life

It's okay
Dry your eye
Please don't cry!

We all suffer here
And there is always someone
Who has it worse than you

So just try to be grateful
Keep calm and carry on
Like the shirt says, lol

Don't forget to take your pills
Anxiety pills and happy pills
However many kinds some people take
I think at least 2 or 3

Because you need them apparently
Heavily medicated American
Coffee and more coffee and television
And more television

Oh yes and alcohol
You have an alcohol problem too

You are drugged up America

Please don't take those pills unless it is necessary
Originally directed at someone in particular.  But now meant as a criticism of some Americans in general.
