Our Life.

poem - atc

Reality can be postponed

For priority to be condoned.

- No 

Medicate, Medicate

That seductive, sedative state,

I am sad and lonely

So that makes me "depressed"

What is it I wonder that I'd be treated with next?

More drugs, more diagnonsense, more delusion. 

No I'm not mental make no confusion

Not insane but simply human

I have a place among the people,

Intercept that perception

Because we're all okay

Just wait to fit back

Feel right behind the face.

The difficulty with dreaming

Is that you are never truly Awake

So see straight and take care

in The World because,

an Enjoyable Experience Awaits.

this makes the entire notion of psychoanalysis moot. I refuse to give my psychiatrist another nickel
since, after he takes it, I can hear him and his obnoxious secretary whispering in the next room.
the difficulty with dreaming is that the sweet unsayable things I cant remember when I wake.

"our life", yours and mine.
well done...dana

When the world keeps truly kicking your but,
remember everything that goes down can come up again, and vice versa!
Just because everything is being burnt and turned into a dark shade of horrible now.
Doesn't mean something may surprise you and go right sooner or later, just have to have a positive attitude and a will to go on.

"Reality can be postponed" was my favorite line
This is a very relatable poem and well-constructed

Thanks a lot :)

we might all be okay, but we also might all be depressed...that doesn't mean we are mental...i agree with this poem...we are simply human...and those who claim to always be fine and normal, those are the ones who are probably suffering from the worst symptoms of depression and on top of that, denial.
