Loony Bin

One Hundred Ten

Over the years since the first sentence,
I have saved the pills
they have given me:
red ones,
blue ones,
big ones,
small ones,
all said to make me feel better,
and it’s on this day
that they finally do their purpose
as they lay out in front of me:
a mass array of colors
swallowed onebyone
with a limp
emotionless
intent.

As the light fades away
I hear one last whisper on
the way to my Angel:
goodnight sweetie.
