You Wear it Well



You wear it well
Your mask of normality & respectability
"We did it in the name of Science"
Your name?
Victor Frankenstein
authorised by the University
"My students must come first, you understand, before the needs and feelings of the 'patients, the clients, them, the other"
We understand perfectly Herr Doktor
May we ask "Did you watch too much Dr Who as a child?
Have you ever seen 'a patient' that actually looks like 'them'?"
They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and the same must be said for ugly.
You see us as ugly Herr Doktor?
Human Beings displaying 'natural' human emotions like sadness and grief and non-conformity are medicalised, chemically coshed and now forced to wear a mask!!!
Whatever next?
You'll be telling us that you know best!
