Quetiapine

If you straight jacket me,

I'll straight jacket you,

They say it's not possible; I say it's true.

 

That doesn't make sense?

Well I could dispense, commence the offence,

It's not immense,

Does that make sense?

 

I romance you with bouquets of pills and meds,

With hospital beds, with hospital beds,

How could you resist a woo so true?

Only for you, too late, curfew.

 

Mutual sensation,

That love invention,

Sad creation,

Innovation,

Which we profess;

 

I manifest,

Bipolar stress, more or less.

 

Author's Note

Just my rambling of course...again! I wasn't aiming for a particular theme and it doesn't pertain to my personal life very much...I just enjoy writing on topics like these. ^^
Quetiapine is a powerful sedative drug used to treat bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. =)

This poem is so rich. I love the way you create rhythm in there, and the inner rhymes. Also I don't think you should say there's no theme. Everything has a theme, and if I were to write a real critic essay on it, it would actually be pretty long on themes and symbolism.
Congratulations.

Surprisingly I understand this. XD It may seem like jibberish to some people, but I can understand vaguely what it is trying to say. XD Am I strange?

-Dearest Seroquel, I do hope you get around to seeing this.- Very nice write. The rhyming was great, in my opinion. Did you mean to repeat the line "with hospital beds"? Either way, it works. It kinda goes along with the "theme" I perceive, that theme being one of borderline insanity being controlled by antipsychotics such as this. Good write, again.

I did mean to repeat it yes, I was kind of in rythm and had nothing else to fill the space..but of a poet's blank haha :L It also can refer to multiple times in hospital in a way, the plural making the illness seem more severe perhaps? It was a psychotic poem, so I guess I'm allowed to do that maybe x]
Thank you for your review, I appreciate it =)

I love this poem! The weirdness is just what I love to read, I wish there were more author's with the skill to make something weird, yet fascinating.
I was going to add this to my reading list and read it later, but the first line caught my eye and I couldn't stop reading!
Well done! ^^
