This poem was written to my son’s mother about 6 weeks before his birth. This is a reprint, upon which I hope to have improved.
I watched Glenn Close and her sister talking about mental illness awareness, on Good Morning America, this morning.. / My experience is tell anyone and you will never be treated the same again. If you are missdiagnosed, and the diagnosis is changed from Schizophrenia to Post Traumatic Stress, you will be treated the same. Family and friends will not be the same. The only people who don’t seem to treat you different are those with a mental health diagnosis. / My best friend has Schizophrenia, and has a Bachalor of Fine Arts, a Dip Ed Degree and Degree in Education for Disfunctional children, a wonderful loving person, who because of the stigma of mental illness works as a car detailer. His education and talent wasted. No encouragement from the authorities only more stigma. / I, through 10 years of service in a government bank earnt a, Unratified, Degree in Political Science/ Finance, and have unfinished studies in Electronic Engineering and Computer science, but I get treated like an illiterate and am not taken seriously by anyone who knows I have a mental health issue. Tell anyone you have schizophrenia and it is them that get paranoid. / I have never had an auditory hallucination. Most schizophrenics don’t.
There are some points in our life where no matter whether or not we truly believe, we find ourselves screaming out to God for help because at that moment there is no one else left for us. These words relate to the two moments in my life when I’ve been in this situation. One when I was in the depths of depression and cut a roadmap of pain in 30 lines across my chest. The second when pinned down on my back, screaming in silence, a moment killed part of me.

Rhapsody In Green Rhapsody In Green represents A Freedom To Shine… And The Divine Goddess Glazed Ceramic Sculpture By the Artist Delphine de Noire Self-Portrait Rhapsody In Green From as long as I can remember, I dreamt of being an Artist… My Mother was a natural and I would ask her to draw and paint pictures for me that I would moon over for days on end… My favourate was a watercolour of a beautiful raven haired mermaid holding a baby merboy. I myself would draw and particularly loved colouring in… / I’ve always lacked confidence with drawing… I would ask my primary school teacher to draw pictures that I could colour in, directing him exactly what to put in the picture. He was the first person to compliment my artistic efforts. He wrote in my report: Delphine has a very good sense of colour… That has stayed with me… Thankyou Mr Neville, I always liked you, inspite of the volatile temper you displayed to the boys at times. He would often throw entire desks across the room! Well, it was the sixties I suppose… Angry young men et al… ;-) During my high school years I enjoyed art, but being a book-worm found myself reading and writing more and more. I was fascinated with horror and would write horror tales, spooking myself in the process! My teacher would have me read them out in class to the sound of applause! That always turned me on I have to say… ;-) I fell in love at eighteen and moved in and was with my ex-husband for twenty-six years. We had some great times and we had some grave times. We gave eachother a lot and we took a lot too… Good and bad…We had two beautiful daughters and two beautiful grandsons. I would say I learnt a lifetime of lessons within that marriage. The best lesson I learnt was follow my own path … I joined a pottery class, because I longed to be a potter. At the time I was deeply religious and steeped in christian doctrine. And I was always trying to emulate the divine any which way I could. It was while doing pottery, my wonderful tutor and friend invited me to a sculpture class… I joined and at first found it a bit un-nerving seeing all these naked bodies… But I reconciled this by again connecting with the divine and imagining I was creating life from earth… My tutor often told me that I would sometimes reveal myself in my work… At the time, this concerned me as I was highly self-concious and held a low self-image at times. Strangely I would often have a contradictory healthy self-image… One day I read somewhere, can’t remember where of a famous artist saying: “You can have a beautiful girl, but if she is too shy she will hide away and her beauty is denied the world.” It was not long after this, that I became an artists model. I was about fourty four at the time. And for the first time in a long time, I felt beautiful again… I found the courage to leave my marriage, follow my own path and start stepping out and embracing life and all its possibilities… I’ve had a few setbacks but feel that’s all part and parcel… More life-lessons… / Being on RB has helped me to accept myself good, bad and indifferent. But hey, I’m still learning… ;-) / I hope you enjoy my sculptures as much as I enjoyed making them… Thankyou kindly for your comments… Delphine x aka Medusa x
