2012/SAMe

Today I begin taking SAMe,
a deep limbic prescription
to counter sadness head on,
the part of my brain
that fires too much from
being loved too little,
as a child or last weekend.
I try to nurture it
with the scent of cinnamon cooking,
my rocking chair or dancing.
Morning walks in the oaks,
my faltering meditation practice.
L-tyrosine seemed to help,
but not enough.
Today I begin taking SAMe.
