#ways of doing things

What order do you take pills in?

If you take more than one kind of pill at a time, what order do you take the pills in?

In order of how important I think each medication is

In order of size: largest first

In order of size: smallest first

In color order

A secret, fifth option

I don't take any pills regularly

A followup post, because this has been fascinating!

There are three ways of doing things around here: the right way, the wrong way, and the way that I do it. You understand?

I Do Not Need Open Eyes To See

I sing with the windows open

But all the doors closed

So no one can come in and see me

But still my voice may be heard outside

I dress with the lights turned off

So not even I can see me before

I am covered up from toe to head

And then I can marvel at my good luck

I write with my headphones in

Whether music is playing or not

Like some literary device that cuts me off

And gives me clarity in thought

I drink with the label torn off

So I'm not reminded by name

Of how drunk I am getting despite

How well I know I'm getting drunk

And I read only dust jacketless hardcovers

So I can't judge by the cover

And I can appreciate something for its word alone

Unlike the way I handle myself

I see others with the lights turned on

Doors and windows open too

Sometimes removing skin and reaching for the soul

Because to it I've become attuned

I see myself with all the lights half dimmed

And doors and windows shut and locked

Inside a room that is all mirrors at odd angles

So I can scream and break them all and still see

But I sing with the windows open

So someone might hear me feel

And maybe if I stopped singing

You would knock on my door
