The Coping Wheel

 

She takes Prozac

To numb her libido,

Can’t find a man

To accept who she is,

Can’t accept who she is

Herself at times,

He takes Zoloft

To suppress his anger,

Aggression, depression,

The kid is fed Ritalin

To quiet his energy,

Excitement, his ADHD,

I suppose we all

Take or do something,

Me, I used to smoke

Erinmore Flake and drink

Scotch and Drambuie,

Now I just write

Poetry.
