Two Medicines

Prozac (Fluoxetine),
St. John's Wort (Hypericum).

One is isolated, synthesized, and prescribed.
One is planted, raised, and harvested.

One smells sterile,
One smells organic.

Both are medicine,
Treatments for depression.

Inked.
Hmm. Has an almost clinical detachment...but I sense underlying emotion.

Well done.
