I swallow the bitter chalkiness
of my zolpidem,
waiting for my concious to be
captured by them.
Indulging in poems of Poe
searching for the ores to row-
row and rock me to my slumber
of countless nights no sleep to number.
Author notes
I haven't written in forever and this just came to me the other night as I was getting ready for bed.
Please tell me what you think

very good
i like the context of your work
it's a good starter if you haven't kept up
poetry is no easy task
i don't usually critique a work
but
i'm kinda sensitive
so i don't particularly go for naming a med
i googled zolpidem
it's a sleep med
so
you could have included
the emptiness of the night
lying there awake
i brave enough to be free of fright
as i wait for the earth to shake
silently
other than that
you keep going
you are doing good

Well written. Short in words but big in meaning. Also its very deep. Great write. Keep it up.

it really flows. its also small, possibly to be metaphorical for the 'little pill' itself?
i like it, i love the tone of this depressed numbness, of tired acceptance... it speaks between the lines quite a bit too.

This is a good poem. Short and straight to the point, no waffling on. I'd give you an applause but I don't have any left.
