the
insane
have
their own asylum
inside
their skulls

they
don’t lock up the insane
to
cure them

they
lock ‘em up
to
keep them away
from
everyone else

escaping
from your own asylum
inside
your skull
is
putting out the darkness
with
the sun

and
then you start to remember
the
last few years

and
you wonder at it all
in
total horror

like
a bad dream you know
is
real

but
then you never run out of
shit
to write about.

  5. sorry, guess i wasn’t clear. it’s the contradiction in terms that’s funny to me

    • You were clear, I was actually agreeing – although a lot of people would find our sense of humor a little odd.
