notes: I didn't mention last week the side-challenge I have going on with [livejournal.com profile] firesign10 and [livejournal.com profile] keppiehed! Keppie's week 2 entry starts with the last line of my week 1 entry, Carole's with Keppie's week 1 last line, and this entry starts with the last line of Carole's week 1 entry.

I preface this poem by saying that this week's topic actually made me very angry. It's full of interesting ideas, but there are better ways to say those ideas than by throwing around words like 'crazy' all the time. I realize that many people simply don't think before they speak or type, but maybe this will convince you to check your ableist language first. Let me show you what it's like from the other side. It's better to intentionally not harm someone than to unintentionally do harm, right?

On that note, warnings for frank discussion of mental illness - specifically of depression, psychosis, and suicide - and several derogatory terms used on people with mental illnesses.

author notes: [livejournal.com profile] truc_d_ouf's poem for week three of august used a similar reflective pattern which was shamelessly stolen for this entry, though something different came of the reflection in this piece. credit for that idea! dedicated to my platonic partner, who rambled at me over the phone for half an hour while i scribbled ideas and muttered incoherently before the poem itself would deign to be written.
