Along with those givers and lenders
and new bonnet benders,
enter the well-wishers and fakers
money rakers and pill takers.

Then trails the honers, other drug donors
and hair color toners;
meet the moonwalkers and ecstasy talkers
midnight stalkers and pretty girl baulkers.

Is this the pill of all pills
grass is greener on other hills?
or is it no small blame
we're unleashing the untamed.

Blood hormones have their levels
much like carpenters have their bevels
why play with your chemistry
with pill- embodied ecstasy

Get out of the insidious trance
Your life is in shaky balance.
when depending on a lethal substance,
there's no last chance
