>My Ghost
>
>My ghost drives around with a bag of dead fish, falling neutrinos drift
>through the trees.  He staggers and reels, runs up credit card bills and
>clogs up the toilet with bottles of pills.  Here in the bipolar ward if
>you shower you get a gold star, but I'm not going far till the Haldol
>kicks in--until then, until then--I'm strapped to this fucking twin bed
>and I won't get any cookies or tea till I stop quoting Nietzsche and
>brush my teeth and comb my hair.  Days pass slow in slippers and robe,
>but my ghost still bangs on the roof like John the Baptist in the rain
>while the nurses play Crazy Eights.
>
>[end song]
>
>Ahw.  It makes me nostalgic for the rehab scene.
