"i don't think so- if you write a suicide poem, and someone says suicide is dumb... sorry, but you CHOSE to not click the no comments button, and you've got to take both sides of the commentary. or you're free to delee them yourself. :)"

"things we like reading, pretty poetry, angry poetry, love poetry... i personally hate poems with netspeak. :) i am free to have that opinion, i hope."

"and honestly... yeah... i have some standards for what i think is good and bad poetry. that's the thing- it's not a judgement on the feelings, or the situation- it's about how the work was put out there. we all have preferances... things we can relate to,"

"my point? people asking for comments need to be willing to accept them. some people love suicide poems... others hate them... and some of us like well written work, whether it's about suicide, sex, or purple elephants."

"i get frustrated with the 14 year olds and their "i wanna die" chants. there's so much to life... and seriously, people who really don't feel inclined to realize that... let 'em go. but that's just a BITTER kitty. :)"
Posted by anathema on "we all get one life (what are you going to do with it?)" by anathema

"it's basically an expression of... "look at everything you have, consider how lucky you are, yeah, life sucks, sometimes we have to really USE that will to survive. and if you don't want to, well, stop breathing my air". "

Posted by anathema on "spare change crosses and the miracle of overindulgence" by anathema

"and the final piece- is it better to be mad, or numb? is there an inbetween? which is worse... the asylum they place your body it, or the one in which they trap your soul?..."

"simple things like deciding what to wear today, or what to drink, used to take hours. and i mean hours."

"what more is there to say? when you hear voices, you're never alone. heh."
Posted by anathema on "disorderly- asylum door #11" by anathema

"i spent some time bulimic... and it's worse than anorexia... because it's a cycle of indulgence and guilt..."

"mania. probably one of the most difficult emotions to sit with.... heh... the hardest to work with as well. it's dizzying."
Posted by anathema on "disorderly- asylum door #9" by anathema

"paranoia. the things i have not done because i was too paranoid to leave the house- the people i haven't called for fear someone other than them would pick up. it is a terrible and frightening cage."
Posted by anathema on "disorderly- asylum door #8" by anathema

"luckily... it's one of the disorders i recovered from, almost entirely."
Posted by anathema on "disorderly- asylum door #6" by anathema

"borderline personality disorder is one of the most difficult to live with. you never feel like you have a grip, you feel like a failure, you want to trust people and can't... it's wretched. nothing seems right. "

"anorexia is something very dear to me... and i hate it. but it's so easy to stop eating, and it's hard to force yourself to begin again. and it's true- you're just never thin enough... until you're dead. it isn't a logical illness."

"this is a piece about PTSD... this is how it manifests in me... makes it often quite difficult to be in social situations... the flashbacks come when and as they please."
Posted by anathema on "disorderly- asylum door #4" by anathema

"obviously... this is a piece on anxiety disorder... something i struggle with quite a bit, though no one would ever guess to watch me in public..."
Posted by anathema on "disorderly- asylum door #5" by anathema

"This poem is about obsessive compulsive disorder... amusingly enough, though this poem is in fours... i always did things in threes... ah well."
Posted by anathema on "disorderly- asylum door #2" by anathema

"this is meant to be a poem that expresses manic depression... it's first in a series of doors that make up the maze of my diagnoses."
