Hurry Up! The Authorities Head This Way Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

What part of insanity,
Has your endorsement and support?
Forget about all of that,
Common sense with sanity talk.

That has long been aborted.
And away from reality,
People have walked!
Or screamed their way...
Into a rehabilitation cage.
To be monitored with instructions...
For a possibility of returning back,
To take their place...
In a society completely and totally crazed.

What part of insanity,
Has your endorsement and support?
You must choose a side very soon,
Before you've been labelled...
A maverick misfit!
Or someone with an attitude...
That expresses one to be a bad sport!

People have walked!
Or screamed their way...
Into a rehabilitation cage.
To be monitored with instructions...
For a possibility of returning back,
To take their place...
In a society completely and totally crazed.

Hurry up!
The 'authorities' head this way!
What part of insanity,
Has your endorsement and support?

If you decide right now,
To be one out of your mind...
They may leave you alone.
But I recommend don't hesitate.
Since independent thinkers...
Are quick for them to find!

'What are 'you' going to do? '

Me?
I'm prepared to tap dance.
And sing, 'Ol' Man Ribber'.

'You mean 'river'! '

No!
It's 'Ribber'.
Trust me.
Here they come!
Start shuffling.
And...
It's 'Yus Sah'!
You got that?
