Drug Looping

 

When self soothing failed

and it became quite obvious

that I could not stop the pain

I turned to my trusted friends

who love and guide me

from their flat screen scripted reality..

My handsome companions 

always know

what to say and do..

They know what it will take

to make my sad ass happy..

Now it seems I'm sick
from overconsumption
of all the numerous
over the counter
joy inducing products
as pitched on TV

by my well meaning 

guardian angels..

I am duly advise
by the distinguished looking

white smock clad actor guy

playing the part

of a calming presence

who is also very smart
that I must first

consult with my real physician
to get the miracle medication
as seen on TV..

This will numb
not only my new 

consumer fueled addiction
but the tele prescription
comes with plenty
of disclaimer side effects

that can only be remedied

by the same Big Pharma chemists

who made me sick..

Strung out me has gotta admit

this chemical death cycle is pretty slick..
