Take It – Written Saturday 7th April 2007 (Aged 32)

Take It

i suggest you take your mental illness –
and take a look down the lonely road
on which,
you appear to be travelling
i suggest you start to do some unravelling
i think that you’re not far from the pitch
a breakdown where insanity will be rich
i suggest you take your mental illness –
and the children,
which you are barely feeding on the love –
they are most needing
i suggest you take your mental illness –
and take it to the doctors
to see if they can fix the cracks appearing
