you are shocked when you open
her medicine cabinet.
quietly pulling
the door open so that it
doesn't squeak.
there are no brown bottles of pills.
no mysterious packets reading
take one daily.
no crazy meds. not a single
capsule to help her sleep
or wake up.
no medicated lotions,
no tubes
of creams with which to heal
a wound, a blister,
a sore or cut.
there is only toothpaste,
and mouth wash. a bar of soap.
she's got nothing in there
to keep her from going
insane.
how does she do it?
