Detention
Mental patients -
Goldfish in a goldfish bowl,
Under the consultant psychiatrist,
Under the watchfull eye
Of the universe.
Lying in our beds,
Spinning in our heads,
Bright sun through tall windows.
"Nurse, Valium, please."
Anything to slow it down,
I try and read
But I can't focus,
Someone is tapping a teacup.
Mania, Schizophrenia,
Clopixol Acuphase,
Hired muscle dotted about,
"Talk to the doctor on Monday Morning."
Guitar
I don't think or speak,
I communicate with my Guitar,
Just another lonely Guitar freak,
You are what you think you are.
