That's Life

i don't need
a shrink 
i don't want
a shrunken

to expand
my mind
take in

the weight
on my 

shoulders
assimilate
the asylum
while simult
aneously
singing

Yes Alkas singing always brings out true feelings. Ah the songs I've sung my friend. Maybe we can get together and sing a few, and then more; and then a lot lol.
