Pill

I fight you.

 

I work quickly

Slowing your mind,

your limbs,

your speech.

 

You feel me in your veins.

The hit is wonderful.

 

I make you droop.

clumsy and slurring,

you stay awake,

typing, and scribbling.

 

Finally, finally!

You give in to my pull

 

And sleep.

A friend of mine requested that I write a poem from the pill's point of view from my poem, The Drugs Are Quick.
