We go again

A simple failure. 
One like
and unlike
all others.
A unicorn
like any unicorn.

I've reverted
to the old drugs.
The ones
that didn't help
me before.
The ones 
that didn't hurt.

My brain
presses around
my skull
swirling.
Too
my mind swirls
anxiously seeking
an answer.
The answer
to the pain.

Not today.
