One Bad News Away From Insanity

The commotion in my psyche is beyond strenuous I get temptations of repugnant conduct My better-half also confirmed my heart's melancholy On this, would you be gentle Mother Nature? Take me wing, soon as I slam my sight My engagement in collection of ignominy Has been a unremitting excursion Which so long as I live through Shall embrace me in its tender pain I went in and out of infirmaries Every time I woke with just a perfect pelt To which white-coated folks cheered With little acquaintance of my valid condition Oh liberty! Why do you shy away in this Have you no espy of my affairs Even when with conviction I assert That should I gather one more dire truth Those of reasonableness shall embrace my presence
