A Foot Asleep

The doctors

Want to drug me into smiling

Drug me into sleeping

They want me to take my pills

Like a good little girl

But the pills

Are as effective as sawdust

I feel as much as a stone

I don't smile

And sleep too much

I don't think

Like a good girl

I'd rather be sad

Than for my whole body

To feel like a foot asleep
