Anti-pragmatic Hypochondriac (From the new book)

Anti-pragmatic Hypochondriac


What would you like to propose

To be self-diagnosed with today

Speculating I suppose

Off your prescription to pray

The affliction upstairs prepares

For fear to escalate

The already ecstatic

Insomniatic

Anti-pragmatic

Hypochondriac’s emphatic

Erratically dismal

Mental and physical state


(Deep breath if you can relate)


Walking talking parasite host

Overstated

Unrelated

And obvious (to most)

I do guarantee

You have been exposed

To a highly impractical

Remotely factual

Tactically radical

Fanatical approach


Hard to explain

A brain that compels

A way that the predator

Preys on itself

With no known antidote

Where is the hope

Immune to intelligence

Allergic to reasoning

Confused by irrelevant

Self-defeating

Symptoms coincidentally

Inconsequential

Explaining the illness

Just may be mental

Perfectly fit

For the sanitarium

Having ill thoughts of death

Being told just to bury them

Legal disclaimers assertively

Facilitate concern

And uncertainty purposely

Psychonjugal visits to fuck with your head

Nothing gets hurt inadvertently

By those who disclose their lack of control

While composing of their own infirmities

I loved these two lines. Each could probably be their own poem.

Deep breath doesn’t begin to cover the ways I ( and so many others as well, I’m sure) can relate. This one hit my core for so many reasons. You are gifted - keep pouring out what is inside of you!💗
