Medication Nation

Arlight, first off and not a poem, this will now be the location of poems instead of the other blog. See, I figure poems are more direct vents and this blog is about direct vents so this is it. Anyways, here's the poem

Medication Nation

Don't feel quite as chipper as you should be?
We've got a pill for that.

Having trouble getting to sleep right away?
We've got a pill for that.

Having trouble getting up in the morning?
We've got a pill for that.

Can't seem to pay attention for very long?
We've got a pill for that.

Paying too much attention to everything?
We've got a pill for that.

Need more energy throughout the day or are you just too fat?
We've got a pill for that... and it's even legal now!

Need vitamins so you can stop eating food?
We've got a whole aisle for that.

Are your legs feeling every so slightly restless, making you ever so slightly uncomfortable?
We've got a pill for that... yeah! Of course, I'm serious, it's a disease!

Are you sick of spending your entire life in a fucking hospital bed and being known as the poor little guy with that one disease while people watch their T.V.s and make a month or a fucking piece of cloth for you and donate a couple of dollars every now and then so some little kid can go to Disney Land while another scientist continues to research how to keep a 60 year-old penis erect!
Sorry, we're busy treating real problems here.
