Mental Hospital Comments

scary and upsetting but powerful. I don't know what poetry can capture the affliction psychiatric systems and mental hospitals sometimes cultivate in some people.

No one ever helped them deal with their pain they was just a face with no name Find the victims ease their pain.....so touching and moving. This is a beautiful poem on mental hospital so touchingly delineated.

Sadly powerful! A harsh reality brought to light

Powerful write....having a child with the devils curse that struct at puberty and visiting daily till her end felt so helpless that cures were none existent... No one ever helped them deal with their pain they was just a face with no name...great insight so so sad...regards

Visiting a mental hospital is not fun. Seeing all the suffering and pain. a good write

Yet the ghosts of they I'm sure still roam the window face...iip

Very impacting and true. This is a great memorial to those who have suffered and an excellent indictment of those who exacerbate it. Art is often meant to imitate life, and this is a great and compassionate reflection on some of the darker parts of that journey. Keep writing!

Never been to a mental hospital, but almost was admitted twice and this picture that you've painted has just heightened my unwillingness to set foot in one of those sad, lifeless places. Also, this poem reminds me of a song; Emily Haines - Doctor Blind.

WOW I love it! mine was kinda true I was in logansport state hospital. Your poem has feeling with meaning in it Wow. Great job...

I understand. (Try Slough Of Despond) Thanks.

Thought provoking, the euthanasia argument is bogus, people need a choice to be able to die with dignity
