Miss Diagnosed

Is Big Brother Watching You?
Does he Like what he Sees?

It’s all about Control…..
without the remote

PS. Run Jen Run

Miss Diagnosed belongs to the following groups:

***♂♥♥QUORN♥♥♀, All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Current Issues, Everyday Life, Humour Captured, Melbourne & Victoria and Something To Say

Now Mrs Jones,
How have you Been?
We have your Whole Life
On the Memory Screen

Seems like your Life
Is Full of Resist
And of this Symptom
You constantly Persist

Your Medical chart
Says your “Out of Hand”
Don’t obey “Rules”
or the “Law of the Land”

We can’t have you
Wreck the Status Quo
So we’ll Lock you Away
To keep you in Tow

We’ll Keep you Subdued
Take away your Free Will
Subject you to Treatments
And Bright Coloured Pills

We’ll Prescribe for you
A very large Dose
of the latest Drugs
That cause Comatose

Then we can Lead you
Where We Want you to go
to Think all the Thoughts
That We Want you to Know

Then you’ll be Fixed
And be able to Lead
A Life we’ve Mapped out
Just for Our Needs

We’ve done our Research
and the Clinical test
the Guinea Pig Trials
and all the Rest

So, Don’t be Afraid
and please Don’t Worry
if it Doesn’t Work
then, we’re Very, Very Sorry

    As always, you hit very close to home for me! :) Unfortunately I have had a spell of being drugged comatose in the doctor’s efforts to control my symptoms. :( I’m better now and have a new doc! :)

    More on point to your poem I think artists/writers tend to be on the wrong side of “normal” thinking and tend to resist control. Nope. Don’t like to be controlled. Nope, nope, nope. ;)

  • ManaMoon replied

    thanks Karirose…I think sometimes people get locked away because they don’t conform to the “Norm” whatever that means….it does pose the question of “What is Normal” ..... who are the people who define it…. and what is their everyday life like? In this day and age “Normal” can have so many variations that it’s hard to define.
