Crazy

Location

I am a crazy person

nobody knows it when they see me

when they talk to me

you can’t see crazy

not most crazy

 

I can recite to you my disorders

like showing off scrapes and scars on my elbows

and when I tell people

It scares them

I scare them

 

What power must I have to be able to scare people so easily?

 

See, I can do everything a healthy-minded person can do

I’m getting a college degree at seventeen

I’m doing this with the weight of worlds on my back

 

I have got the power

To fight off an army

all in my silly old head

 

and I will.



(but I’m still sad)
