Psycho-somatic, melodramatic
Fantasies of schizos in their monarchy of panic
The institutionalized licking their brains
Prescribed hope in bottles of pain

Worshipped fears, scattered briers
All these icons in the minds of seers
Practitioners scuttle with pills for all
Forever transcribed, house of Paul

Frolicking women insane from treatments
Lumps removed lacking caring statements
Hospitals grand, cages of steel
My friend Mike, prisoner who feels.

powerfull write,makes me wonder just who are the insane...hope your friend makes it back with his ability to feel intact.

Live like it's your last day...
Dance like nobody's watching...
Love like you've never been hurt...

There are some people that go by the book so much so that they forget the human element. I feel the same as the other comment here. Makes you wonder whose sane, and who isn't.
