Psychiatric Ward: discharged highway fever melting rubber tires easily into fatigue wear, worn out-- blown out of reason, sanity crawls to a stop. short screeches, scream leeches the night, dark-- blackened dreams, night-mares: female horses run shoeless-- pitter-patter. confused minds grope, rope the wild stallion: tame mustang pulls out onto a new road with map in hand and new treads. ©2004 Grover Gall |

i would huddle in a corner in the fetal position rock back and forth and cry if i had to spend a day in your "psychiatric ward" (imagination) ...you're just too must for me :Þ joy has its own justice. and dreams are languid and lawless. and everything bows to beauty, when it's fierce and when it's flawless... |

Once when I was younger a friend of mine had a mental illness and I went to visit. The women were put into little cottages and I thought how sad this place. I seen old people there just because they were old. Some very ill.What a mix this one little cottage had. Interesting write. Bon-Bon ![]() |

With a good map and new tires, you can go anywhere. I like the ending of this one. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

hopefully you are good at reading maps, so you'll never lose your way again ![]() i enjoyed this because you exposed a vulnerable place in a way anyone could "feel" it ![]() |
