Mental Health
Take comfort in a simple notion;
Acting out is loco-motion.
Suicide can be self-destroying.
Fears are sometimes parannoying.
If you delusional should become.
Hearing voices - keep thy aplomb.
Madness needn't be revealing.
Schizophrenia can be apeeling.
William's Whimsical Words:
It would appear that three out of every four famous persons born are born in London.
