The title of this poem - Monday Morning Lunatic - is taken from the lyrics to Solitary Shell from the album Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence by Dream Theater.

 

I've had enough of songbirds they don't speak for me and the specialist keeps me waiting in a monotone room for waiting and the windows are too fish tank with the fish all looking in wait, I think that's me looking in as the therapist finally calls but I left hours ago, a bird in song

I appreciate the symbolism and the almost surreal nature of your words. I remember those monotonous waiting rooms of just a year ago, whilst waiting for one specialist after another....I felt 'distorted' for months. Have a pleasant evening, Sara
