Ode To My Madness

I cultivate my madness. It keeps me sane. It allows me to go through the motions without feeling motion sickness. I gorge my madness on music and words, and I sing to it "Grow."

I pretend to be normal to the best of my ability. They reward me by saying I'm mostly harmless. Another day then I can go home again, to cultivate my madness in peace.

I sing sonnets to my madness. I lie in bed with it at night. My madness is closer to me than you could ever be.
