Spiller Poem by John McGuire

A scatter of pills,
The time to chill,
Tunnel vision,
Dark visions,
Nagging pain,
Turn it off no gain,

Can't cope,
Want out,
Escape is fantasy,
Brightness needed unimpeded,
Drown the sorrow,
Only know how,
Dull it, dull it,
Need it now,

A barrel of pills,
Comes the chills,
Looking for normality,
Not feeling abnormality
What's normal,
Judgment not the same,
Caught in a fiction,
Someone else not me,

How come,
How now,
Strange feelings,
Out of body experience,
Looking in,
Not liking out,
Hard to comprehend,
The barrel of pills….
