Unseen and Unheard and Over medicated

by Garry Stewart, a Scottish Canadian
from his self published, out of print book
"Notes from the Nut House"

 They have neither the time, nor the compassion for talk
nor for "talk therapy."

It's just pills, pills, pills!
Washed down with a glass of rules.

They may make time for electro convulsive "therapy."
But "talk is expensive, pills are cheap"
is the motto of their bottom line.

THEY have decided
with the certainty of Columbus
that the Brave New World of lobotomizing drugs
THEY have brought to the Americas of MY mind is what's best for me.

ME,
the ignorant savage,
standing in the loincloth of his "mental illness".
