My mind screams STRANGLE and my heart whimpers a cry I don't hear. This doctors not to be trusted, he's in on it too, I swear. Where are my claws when I need them? These petty fingernails just leave red marks as I sit in this chair like at the dentist, but instead of cleaning my teeth they're cleaning my mind!!! Patches of grey from here on out. Little dixie cups with pills that I don't want but I fear for what happens if I refuse. 'That's a good boy' they say as I swig down the water, sour taste left in my mouth. They don't let you sleep here, during the day at least. And they're ALLLL out to get ya, watching your every move. I don't know where the entrance is let alone the exit. Everythings so clean, if I could even see straight I'd see no specks of dust. Group therapies with more spies, tryin' to get me to talk. It's a ploy! Don't say a word boy! I play chess with my roommate cuz the meds don't let me read. He gets me, checkmate.
