a cure

little pill full of powder

in my gut you go

now I shiver, sweat

the air too hot, too cold

the world it fades

monochrome hued

all I see thus shaded

my limbs feel distant

mind races faster

am I heading for disaster

calm, calm breathe deeply

vision clears, unease remains

this is supposed to be the cure

am I worse, or is this better

lethargic, angsty, is this the real me

or is the pill further deluding me
