Antidepressant Poem by Ivana Mabry

pop one, pop too, it's what we do
it's the nation's cure, no need to rue
no matter your age, it's legit
i do, they do, now just admit
to smile, to laugh, to just feel high
which one do you take?
the reasons, the why?
do you go to the doctor or to da street?
claim depression for this snazzy treat
times are hard life's too real
it's manufactured to count pill by pill
pitched in bottles, for an 'off label use'
why wouldn't? who wouldn't?
hooray for pill abuse! ! !
