| About |
And this...was the room that was the saddest. It begged for understanding. It wanted me to know. The stories...the accusations...the truths....the lies. Hidden memoirs, minds and souls analyzed.
Here, I bent down and read....riveting, mind boggling, and tragic accounts of these . . . inhabitants. Those seeking help, and those seeking solace; pushed together like sardines. Eye to eye, pupil to pupil, soul to soul. My next entry (#12) gives you a glimpse of what was typically written about them.

we often forget reality can be so utterly cruel, effortlessly inhuman and hopelessly shameful.
and we need to be reminded.
thanks for sharing these unbelievably real images.

The soles of my feet sweat at the thought of treading this floor. Not a floor for walking on.

ok, seriously, this needs to be published or should we say exposed. it seems almost inhumane when I start analizing it. You dont even know what you could be uncovering.

Powerful and dramatic with only a bare rotted floor and a few pieces of paper. Their lives, their thoughts all strewn about, discarded with the same indifference they were treated with.

"Welcome to where time stands still
No one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to change
Just labeled mentally deranged
Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, no windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred
Sleep, my friend, and you will see
That dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cage
Can't they see it's why my brain says ?rage?
Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Build my fear of what's out there
Cannot breathe the open air
Whisper things into my brain
Assuring me that I'm insane
They think our heads are in their hands
But violent use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him well
He's getting better, can't you tell?
No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it well
But they think this saves us from our hell
Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Fear of living on
Natives getting restless now
Mutiny in the air
Got some death to do
Mirror stares back hard
?Kill,? it's such a friendly word
Seems the only way
For reaching out again"
