The patients are down
and fine
Medicated to ease any tension
nighttime sees the ghost town
the dwelling was built on
As the sun rises,
the vampires and groundhogs
come back to life
Some spirits don’t mix with others
Yet, they know they fit in
somehow
by way of ingesting their medication
to ease the tension
of becoming ghost whisperers

Shadow
Hello. Hi
I said with a smile
If I should blink my eye
Are You here for a while?
Then long before
Like Yesterday
I closed the door
And hoped You’d go away
How did You get inside
Without knocking or bell
Dare me to run and hide
Just don’t drag me to Hell
Open the door for me
Go ahead, draw the shades
Make it easy for me to see
the skinny, shiny razor blades
I know You have a face
Though You don’t look at me
I wish You’d keep your place
Go, and Just let me be
Do I hear my own voice?
Or are You mocking me?
Is there ever a choice
To lose my sanity?
On the streets tomorrow
I may try to make a new friend
Someone who doesn’t like sorrow
And won’t bring my life to an end
And if I do
Please don’t say, “Hi.”
There’s no more room for two
To help me live or die
Kathy Ball
What makes her do
the things she does
All the voices in her head ring true
Maybe, it’s just because
She’s been living in her own world
Playing make believe and hide and seek
But now that her life has unfurled
it’s hard to get the truth to speak
Kathy Ball
has taken a fall
Down the ladder’s silver platter
Up against the wall
She has taken her last bow
Somehow
Someway, she’ll make (last) her last curtain call
She always knew it wouldn’t last
Going so fast with her past
Playing games
Naming names that caused others more shame
Knowing right from wrong
Acting strong
Lashing out way too long
Handcuffed to the same old song
What caused the riff in her tide
that she couldn’t hide
Was the love of another
A woman even her own husband saw in her mother
Worry
Contemplating
Demonstrating
Trying
Coping
Doing
Failing
at succeeding
Wondering why
and looking at the sky
You hear voices
because of your choices
telling you things
as if an angel sings
But do they stop
when you’re happy
Or do they wait
’til you’re crappy?
Once they find you
you’re never through
Medication
is their dedication
Keep company
with frustration
A life long friend
true to the end
who’s begging to stay in
as you look to the ground again
Syracuse Community Health Center, Inc. is a joke!
Like Somebody Other Than Myself
Six pills left
Until I see him next
I wish I didn’t have to
I hope I get lost this time
Standing there
Before the crowd
It’s just me
But there’s somebody else
they wish to see
Will I say the right thing
Will I talk like I can sing
Will my hands and legs move and grove
So they can’t tell I can soothe
But I can’t do anymore
Than my body is alive for
I can’t be anything or anybody else
Like somebody other than myself
Playing this game
Just a symptom before a name
How do I let my real feelings show
Keep ‘em guessing or throw a blow
Seeking my end result
Though speaking to the leader of a cult
No generic for me
Need a taste of false reality
And when I go to cash them in
Shopping spree I’m ready to spend
A mental life lets it begin
Soon the bank will be my best friend
The Herpes Simplex
Why won’t you go away
The medicine I take won’t work
You fester below me
You pester above thee
I have to hold you back
Nothing is this simple
The addiction you have for me
will boil my flesh if I say, “Hi”
Why won’t you go away
and take your self with you
If I get numb, I may forget
and let you get
I have to hold you back
but not give you my back
The addiction needs direction
And satisfaction needs freedom
that I will not allow
It will never rain in my house
Even a mouse can hear a mouse
I will shout the right way
