A vague diagnosis
with a thousand and one
possible causes.

I soothe myself
by saying it’s just
the voices in my head
urging me to do
heinous
unthinkable things,

but doing so
at a ridiculously high
frequency.

Could be voices
that were intended for
Sparky’s head
and ended up in mine
by mistake.

Which might be a
good thing
come to think of it.
