is it in the water?
the thing that is
making us
all so sad?
have they taken away our
serotonin?
our dopamine?
our epinephrine?
and damaged our
neurotransmitters?
so that we remain
only familiar
with sadness?
with this soul-eating numbness?
and create
a nationwide
pandemic
of sad
sad
people?
is it in the water?
this thing that is
making us
all so sad?
