Schizophrenics
by
M A Heathcote
When the wiring
of the brain
unravels in this way
like a ball of yarn
there can be no lonelier
place on earth:
Than your own malicious-mind
teasing out its own pain
waging war upon its own, self-esteem;
its own heart and soul
bother, sister, mother, father
and one-time friend and lover!
