Death death is better than being here,
How will you proclaim me mad,
When my sanity beats harder
Wild with rage and not
Scratching the edges of the little red bleeding cells
But calm enough not to explode
Mad isn't me and me isn't mad
Oblivious to the crickets noise
For am sane in my glad insanity.
