Lunacy Fringe

There is meaning in my psychosis
So the doctor said in his diagnosis

Feral smiles from lupine eyes
The yellow moon hangs in the skies

Four white walls, a padded cell
For the mind demented of hell

Mid-day delusions and razorblades kiss
Parchment skin and bloody lips

Monsters lurk inside my head
Hide from the fluorescent lights overhead.

The doctor awaits me scalpel in hand
Dissect my brain doctor, but you’ll never understand

The parasites host never even knows
And sanity will decompose.
