I asked the guards about the voices
They said they were just the other nuts
I’ve never met any of them before
So why are they all talking about me?

In realizing life as it is portrayed...a little sanity is found in solitary ponderings.  Alot to think about in this one.  Enjoyed.

I always figured they were just jealous. I love this little exercise in saying a whole bunch with very few, but extremely well-chosen, words.

This one is intense. It says so much in so few words.

Reminds me of the lines of an old R&R song.
"Paranoia stikes deep.
Into your mind it will creep".

It's ALL ABOUT YOU, isn't it. Have you never read the Peanut's Strip with Charlie brown thinking the girls are talking about him, and so he gets all depressed. I mean come on! Good piece though... even if it shows your egocentric side (not that you have one).
