Maker of Good Feeling Pill

The pill in sticky sweaty hands doth lie
Full of importance doesn't know why

The route finder has decided the journey, commencing.
via the saliva gland which wets the pill they're dispensing

Along the path from the pharynx where you are swallowed
Taking the A road to the oesophagus where pushing is allowed

Until it reaches journeys end the main line station of stomach
Then on to many branch lines being dispersed to enact

Have you realised which pill is the be all and end all of your being
What is the name of this important maker of good feeling

The Happy Pill, if your happy nothing else is of importance
Happiness is and Happiness does, with abundance.

A clever way to approach the theme, which I find kind of difficult, so I commend you on this poem, Seren. I want to buy a bunch of those happy pills. Well, I am pretty happy already but I have loved ones who could use them as well!
