Psychos Therapy

November 1, 2020 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

Psychotherapists should look to set up in prisons

if they really wanna make a difference

unless they weigh potential success

versus inheriting a subject’s duress

Prison’s mental health is offering meds

creating more addictions just to take off the edge

never fixing what society wanted changed

never fixing the traumatic anxiety in our brains

made to accept normalcy within our chains

even a psychotherapist would understand that that’s deranged
