I found this old gem...
Take your medicine
the pills I pop and sign for as a certified aid
are the exact opposite of what I would do for myself
see
I'd rather smoke some a sprinkle of happy
and spend all evening laughing at my own journey
let me remember
fuzzy red dice pajamas
or the times I didn't listen when you told me you'd had enough
forgetting to water the plants
remembering to water down the wine bottles
calling to
bitch
forgetting that it was your birthday
driving home high laughing at myself
wondering if the toll booth man got a hair cut
swallow your medicine, old woman
yes, yes your earrings look nice
no, the water is the same temperature
it won't burn you
no more pudding
promise me! Promise me! That you won't put me in a home
God help me, I'll spit out the pills when you aren't looking!
Let me die so quick the rocking chair skips a beat and I'm gone
be careful, the New Yorker watching his GPS isn't watching the road
he won't see you until he's cut you off
pass him
take your exit
