insomnia p. ii

She knows
She has a genetic predisposition to
Addiction.

Anorexia
And that one time,
When she fell in an ardent and
Toxic
Passionate
Love affair with
Vicodin
After just five short days -

For this reason
She valiantly
(Or cowardly, as it may very well be
Because nothing scares her more than
Being at the mercy
Of a little blue pill)
Quit.

But, oh dear -
How she misses
Ambien during
Sleepless nights !
