I can see the ‘Gwallgofrwydd’ in her eyes
It’s the way she eats mince pies.
It’s the way that she cracks walnuts between her thighs.
It’s the way that she pushed me through one of the windows
on the Bridge of Sighs.
There’s something to be said for ‘Madness’ and for ‘Crazy’
But you couldn’t take a lifetime of it, makes you hazy.
Sanity is more important than your name or reputation
You could lose the latter and still make reparation
To lose your sanity in an insane world is the worse thing of
all
Because you then become like them in their cars and bars
Wiping their asses on their Covid Masks
Drinking the vaccine straight from Thermos Flasks
Keep your sanity until the day that you die
It’s only then that you’ll find out why
You knew from age 11 that life was a lie
That precocious child that played I Spy
who saw through the false smiles and silent scream eyes.
Families carried secrets as high as the skies.
Something beginning with A?
Asylum, never granted. Only for lunatics.
