[Because the easiest way to take pills
Is to pretend you’re Spiderman or something]

This
Is the inaction
Heavying the hands and the eyes.

Consequence and cause, problem and solution.

That is a tangle
That we cannot see, and only
Take a single path at a time – to
Sleep,
To go to sleep,
And we solve that, the maze
Realigns, here’s the next
Dilemma, the fork
That pierces.

Insomnia will give way to exhaustion,
Exhaustion to anxiety,
Anxiety to pain,
And pain’s the shield, pain’s the aegis,
The shelter and the hide,
A saga not told by momentary medication,
A saga pharmaceutically untouched.
Haptophobia.
