Clinical Depression

by Antithesis   Oct 20, 2007


For I am the Sin
Damnation of society
The epitome of anomie
Marked since Birth
Wretchedness I brought
In my fears and despondencies

[Burn me! Burn me!
Imperfections they go with me!
Slice me! Slice me!
So my flaws will vanish with me!
Hang me! Hang me!
Peccability gone with me!
Kill me! Kill me!
For I am the Sin!]

Demented creature
Born into hallucinations
A dimension that seems to be
Cursed by apathy
Plagued by despair
A contagious disease

    This was an awesome read. It successfully expresses the situation of society and 'clinical depression.' I enjoyed the middle stanza because it sounded, in my head, almost like it could be a song which usually means that it is powerful and quick to the point. I love the dementia in this poem, great write.

    Farewell,

    ~Richie
