Comment from DIS-illusioned
--"Insane Serenade"
Interesting title. Let's see where it leads ...
--"Cue, a lone cockroach approaching,"
Huh! ... Interesting imagery.
--"Here, see the truth of lies"
Good paradoxical statement.
--"My view of the state mental asylum that I spent time in at a young age."
Wow! ... Interesting metaphoric outlook on it.

Comment from G.B. Smith
All is well in the ward of beds,
Each a tale to tell. All is well
In the soaked up meds, passing
Judgement in a mixed up world.
Having spent some time in one of these places after Vietnam, I fully feel the intent of this well written and thought out poem

Comment from Thomas11
that was amazing. I am not going to pretend that i know what you are talking about because it is operating on so many levels. However i would say that this poem is deeply spiritual and a great read.

Comment from Tonulak
This was vivid, disturbing and powerful. The line "sweat glistens on the
brow reflects", seems grammatically unresolved; "reflects what? If you
tried "reflecting", then you'd have a nice double meaning, as the brow would
be physically reflecting and "reflecting" in terms of thinking, pondering.
Still this poem is excellent!

Yes we should never pass judgment in a mixed up world. I liked your poem. You had a great message. And you chose the right picture too.

Beautiful picture. Your poem is so dad to me. All the darkness and discord within. I do like the two lines the best where truth lies and passing judgement in a mixed up world, judgement can only be done by the one true judge. Thank you for sharing.
