Letter to Anne
I see you dancing
around the radio
holding hands with the
circle of sanity
the flowers in your hair
unnoticed
against your catwalk beauty
as the doctor places you
back on the stage
so the other manics
can dream
of their own
medicinal puppet strings
carving a smile on faces
that for a moment
don't have to look
like
demons
I will visit soon
of this I promise

Maybe you should visit Anne, ASAP.
Strange little write more like an apology.
Take care yours Ian.T
