No its not poisonous, even if you sat back and drank the whole pen you probably would not feel anything, if you must know what inside your average ballpoint pen ink its an aqueous ink which has high pigment dispersion stability, which includes a pigment, a water-soluble organic solvent, water, xanthane gum and trace amounts of sodium alginate.
Xanthane gum is in Jello and sodium alginate is in fact a good chelator for pulling radioactive toxins from the body. So if anything, drinking pen ink is good for you, keep it up.

Everything is poisonous.
It is all a matter of dose.
Even plain water can be toxic.
