The Mentally Ill
Rated: E | Poetry | Health | #1663212
Loosely labeled a poem, because that's all I write - it's about concentration.
God has left an enormous wealth of untapped power
In the hands of the mentally ill,
But the public should not destroy these unlucky citizens
By seeking to rectify their lack of concentration
On worldly and personal affairs –
Concentration is an onerous, mind-numbing task
For these unfortunate souls;
We should let them embark
On their concerned, yet hopeful journeys
With the determined focus that they already generate
In overcoming their disheartening disabilities.
