DHEA (not Powdered Glass)

You gave me DHEA outside of Cabo San Lucas

And told me it was crushed glass in gelatin capsules

Those were the days when I took whatever pills you would give me

Because I controlled you by being submissive

I could tell you were lying about the pills

I have scientific eyes and a tongue that senses shifts in pill-weights

Now we do not travel together because you live in another state

Where the FDA lets you misrepresent supplements

I am no longer in control after standing up to you

And my scientific eyes miss your warm smile

And my tongue longs for the uneven weights of those gelatin capsules

Take at least fourteen pills right now. Be careful if you are part Mexican!
