Care In The Community Poem by John Thorkild Ellison

SCARE in the community!
The psychopath is free to roam!
Grant the Public immunity
And put me back in a Mental Home!

I suppose you think you're very clever
Interfering in this way -
There are some of us who feel it will never
Be safe enough to come out and play! !

Of course, you think that you're 'enlightened',
You've 'set us free' because you 'care';
Personally I'm very frightened!
I was happier in hospital - I felt safer there! !
