Anti-Psychotic

So overwhelmed in my Mind's bleak realm; A mental dungeon where I am bludgeoned... I lose control; release the helm- (I have no strength; can barely function) Beguiled by trials, my thoughts defiled- Trying tortures, they compound- compile! I lament this long torment, And ponder if the pain's worthwhile

Boy, Chan, you packed a lot into these eight brief lines. You have written something here that manifests a high order of skill. The poem's impact is so enhanced by your pen. Regard the source of pain. It is often unworthy of the precious life energy given to it.

I feel the same way so much of the time..is it all worth it? I did relate to your poem and wish it had placed higher. BG
