• the lunatic

   

  this is something i did in the last ten minutes.
  because i was struck with an idea inspired by my own insanity.
  ...that and the fact that waiting and wondering do not suit me.
  anyway. it's no masterpiece, but it's not bad for a little ten minute activity.

   

  the lunatic in madness waits,
  but presently dissociates...
  and falls into a fit
  that only anger could create.
  and in a state of rage,
  she glowers
  and soon her disposition sours
  thinking of time,
  and bound by hours
  she begs the clock
  to chime
  and hangs
  from rafters only by
  a single tie
  (to life.)
  in innocence,
  she half-beguiles
  those at whom
  she insanely smiles
  but watching close,
  it's noted that
  she grins just like
  the cheshire cat
  and laughs away
  and spins around
  in circles
  searching for
  the ground
  and answers
  to the answers
  she had previously found.
  still expecting,
  all in vain,
  the sunny skies
  to summon rain
  to fall and
  somehow
  make her sane.
