My White Friends
By Andy Brown
The sun sets and day turns to night,
She reaches out and turns off the light.
Dive into a cabinet, grab a bottle of pills
Damned if you do
Hours past and night turns to day,
But she’s already awake.
Toss and turn, medicine’s a curse
Open a hand
She smiles a crooked smile,
And she walks in a semi-straight line
She hurts inside, but tells you she’s fine
Damned if you don’t
Diseases should be banned
Turn on the light
Close a hand
I’m just fine
