Of Two Minds

Emptied of prescription prayer 
this vessel runneth over
with questions.

Titrated down step by step
this systems clean, pure
feeling fresh.

Which narcotics best regulate
my chemical reactions?
Asking for a friend,
not so I may avoid them.

Covered, my mirror is sealed
this may be a last reflection
before repossession.

Spiraled into manic thinking
this depression is frightening
if it means no more me
without me.
