As my adderall crash begins
the fuzz and the buzz in my brain
by meth minus a methyl group, barely restrained
comes roaring back
a tumult breaking through and over
the temporary dam I’d constructed.
Afternoon coffee time
hot water
two espresso
two non-dairy creamers.
The coffee machine at work is much improved
as is my mood.
Hey, I might not be able to sleep tonight
drinking coffee at fifteen hundred hours
but I deserve a treat and a functioning brain
I don’t have superpowers.
