Picked Up the Cabbage Leaves

Picked Up the Cabbage Leaves
Have lost my Fork
My Trowel
And my Secateurs
As well as My Mind
I'm a Complete Lightweight
I couldn't
Make a Political Argument
If Someone Paid Me
But I was told to
Focus on Myself
By the Psychiatrist
But We cannot
Go on Kidding
The Patient
Within Consultation
And then Condemning
On Paper
And Verbally
It is Immoral
To Stand By
And Allow
Our Psychiatric Patients
To be Raped
And Have Murder Attempted
And to be taken Advantage of
Etc, etc, etc
Without Protection of Law
It's all a Cruel Freak Show
And Psychiatry must Change It's Focus
And Develop a Moral Fibre
That Enhances People's Lives
Drugs only Hasten
The loss of Faculties
Unless People can See
That there is Truly Hope
I have been So Traumatized
My Sanity
Is All but Completely Lost
We cannot Go On
Mocking People
Into Suicide
Please Give these People
A Decent Chance
At Decent Living Standards
And Job Security
That I Believe
Is the only Fair Choice
For Psychiatry
The Mentally Ill
Should not be Left Rudderless
To Will Themselves into an Early Grave
I Kneel Before God
And I Pray
That When I am @ Peace in my Grave
Our Children
Don't just Exist
In a State of Complete
Desperation
But feel Safe
In a Society
That does not Condemn
I'm only Here by default
I wanted Out of the Degradation
But I Argue now
For those that are
To Come
We Cannot
Go On
Turning a Blind Eye
And not Lending a Hand
Psychiatrists must Start Batting
For Their Patients
Instead of Analyzing Us
As Some sort of Lab Rats
And then Condemning
And Hiding Mistakes
Drugs Destroy the Mind in some Cases
Even more so than the Mental Illness itself
We must First Employ
Then Medicate Cautiously
PLEASE
PLEASE
PLEASE
