Poetry: Sanity

by March Claire

Created on: October 08, 2009

The clock is ticking
My mind is wishing
Oh me, oh my
I've lost my guy

The zebra pleads composure
To these very cold-hearted trolls
He seeks to be a maker
But only at the Poles

Kevin, Joseph,
Andrew, too
What makes you think
I left because of you?

Butterflies, lilacs
Both go in gardens
Dolphins, sharks
Become great burdens

My mind
My sanity
The doctor's left the building
The lies
The tradgedy
Oh, how my mind is filling
Nonsense
Despair
Coming from everywhere
Denial
And truth
My love is in Deluth

Doctor, doctor!
Prescribe some benzadrine
My mother's in the hallway
And she's blowing off steam

Ha-ha!
I won
But the war has just begun
Against my mind
I'm going to fight!
Don't be afraid
If I don't make it through the night
