we are caged animals.
locked up, locked in for everything,
even the devil smells your sins.
hide your words, impulses, your eyes
or the loons will have a feast tonight.
crackers, nuts, guy just went loony tunes, lost your marbles.
insanity.
I am this. or so They tell me.
I dream in words, deepest words
tired of screaming every day, let me out LET ME THE **** OUT.
heed my words, dear one: be careful what and who you cut. it might just change your life.
I spent some time in a mental hospital; this was my experience.
