Away From Pills

 
And so you run, seeking that chaste field
so far removed from claustrophobic nightmares
of tall buildings and cacophonous menace

You only trade the hopeful dream of escape
from one place for another as the solitude
offers you no better solace

Your screams unheard and unanswered
by uncaring nature, prescriptive chemistry
no longer fixing what biology has forfeited

Postpone your eventuality by accepting
what you are already aware of...
the broken science project that is your life.
