Come
back little pill
The
larger pills come out
maybe
one or two at a time
but
not seven, not 18
You
always roll around and
one
or six will manage to
escape
as I am trying to
put
you back and at least
one
of you will fall to the
floor
and laugh at me
thinking
you have
made a
triumphant
escape
Truth
be known
I
don’t even wish to
take you
I
understand your
wanting
to hide
