Windy Day Daffodils
A teardrop means
pressure has built over time
the mind has boiled over
don't try to hold it back
or turn down the heat
the shrinks say-let it flow
this is completely normal...
but if you do it for too long
they'll claim it-mental breakdown.
A train wreck in your head
label you a mental defective.
On the blackest of days
they'll whisk your children away.
Extract you from your life
like a tumor under a dull knife.
They'll fill your pez dispenser head
with a glaze of happiness.
To cloak the waves of ill
sizzling inside your burning brain pan.
