diamond- Padded Walls

A funny peom about the better parts of insanity

 

My sanity is dead

 

I've been betrayed by my own head

 

Get a grip?

 

S**t, show me how

 

I'll never figure this mess out now

 

I've gone insane

 

I'm out of my brain

 

I'm hanging by a wire

 

My heart and my mind are mad at each other

 

And lighting up a funeral pyre

 

Normal is overrated

 

And strange is understated

 

My mind, I could not hold it

 

I didn't lose it

 

The harpies stole it

 

Um...

 

Whoops I'm sorry

 

 I lost myself...

 

What's going on again

 

Why even try to keep this straight

 

Who's smarter?

 

Mice?

 

Or men

 

My own fictional terrorist,

 

 Put a plane into my brain

 

Isn't it strange that brain rhymes with insane?

 

Switch the "a" and "i" and you get Brian

 

He's one of those "normal" guys

 

These kinds of thing don't bug him

 

He never wonders why

 

Screw you Brian I hate you

 

Not really, but you don't care

 

"normal" people are strange to me,

 

I can't help but stop and stare

 

It's 4:00am. I'm half a*s dead

 

I'm still awake...I think

 

Off my rocker?

 

S**t I broke it

 

Writing poetry with clear ink

 

Stick brick flick trick

 

Luck buck duck truck 

 

Ray day hey SAY!

 

We all die anyway

 

So what's the use in praying?

 

Oops, I'm off on my own again

 

I'm sorry what were you saying?

 

Author's Note

Just rambling, it's not meant to make any sense

Not making sense just emphasizes the insanity, which I believe we all suffer in one form or another. I had to come straight to this piece because I'm in need of a rubber room myself. I was laughing about Brian...cuz I know one...and he's not much of a brain!!
This line made me lol: The harpies stole it

Thats the thing it does make sense!! Good write!

Makes perfect sense to me! I know two Brians, and both of them are weird in their own ways. I guess if you think about it, we all are weird. Aliens would look down on us and think 'Hey! They only have one head! How weird can you get?' Lovely poem once again. :)
