Am I Just a Crackpot

Am I Just a Crackpot.

 

I keep searching for an explanation.

Yet I find myself contemplating.

The turmoil in my mind is inflicting.

And. the confusion to me it is subjecting.

 

I feel my wires need to be reconnected.

So, my sanity can be protected.

A simple understanding is rejected.

Maybe my mind is just defective.

 

Am I clamouring for answers I cannot find.

In a deeply troubled and confused mind.

Normality appears to have left me behind.

The whole thing feels like I am slowly doing time.

 

I just need to see a little common sense.

Find a key to break down the stubborn defence.

That my mind has been keeping me from normality.

Or am I just a crackpot is that the reality.

 

Tobani October (2024).

Thanks Tobani. I frequently ask myself that question.

Depends on what your definition of "Crackpot" is....I see those who are in charge of our country, who deem themselves to be our elders and betters - and their admirers - tirelessly repeating the same lunacies and expecting different results......a definite sign of madness! 😳
I recommend a dose of humour helps-preferably the black sort, employed by hospital nurses and the like!

You’re welcome 😊 .. I love the mental health reference in this poem because I honestly have felt this way when I was having a tough time.
