Poetry: Already dead inside

Smiles, grins,

wave at the people.

Laugh at the jokes, and then

dance to the music.

Nod and gesture with

certain learned movements.

Dance with the beat,

and copy the others.

Be ready to greet

them with a firm

but confident handshake.

Make sure others see the passion

and the sorrow of deep loss.

Walk and chew, act as if,

then when the day is done.

Go home and plug in,

your favorite show is on.

Then; to bed.

Take the pills, one at a time.
