The pill is
tiny
and it is
insignificant
too insignificant for the word itself
and it shakes in its silver casing.
It is the size of a full stop
a fullstop, throw her in reverse
and I wonder if I take it will it
stop
(And have to think hard about not taking them all
afterall if only one can do it why not get it over with)
carefully arranging them into individual cases
placing them on display
a museum of my own failures or desire to change them
its taken so long and it will take longer and they will sit where i put them
in my line of sight
for a month
one
tiny
pill
everyday, four weeks
