Empty cages
Ashes of mental asylums
The unquiet dead and living
Shove Capital’s statute of madness back into its face.
Ashes of mental asylums
The unquiet dead and living
Shove Capital’s statute of madness back into its face.
The heavy DSM-5
Leaves marks
When applied.
Leaves marks
When applied.
Hope persists alongside my dreaming
Screaming sobbing sickness
Hurry Comrade:
Hurry to play.
Hurry to go mad.
Hurry to refuse work.
Hurry to arm yourself.
Screaming sobbing sickness
Hurry Comrade:
Hurry to play.
Hurry to go mad.
Hurry to refuse work.
Hurry to arm yourself.
Hurry to create communities of joy.
