[hometext] => Although this isn't about me, it's about something I saw at a psychiatric ward... the rest is my interpretation. Comments will be really appreciated since I'm a novice.
[bodytext] => Her harsh anguished screams resound The air responds with pathetic pity Pity for one who no longer understands For one who is lost Immersed, engrossed in the snares of insanity She cries out once more — “Why do you laugh? You don’t understand! Is this funny? You don’t know what it feels What it entails, to be me!” The people waiting outside Oblivious of her pain Laugh; their derisive laughter Mocking her every sound Silvery laughter fills the room They are one in their condemnation “Why do you laugh?” she cries “Is this funny?” she asks Questions which no one answers No one wishes to Unanimous in glee A mute spectator watches He does not move, does not speak He realizes that everyone Has troubles to hide, secrets to keep The girl steps out, her eyes bloodshot With rage, with frustration “Is this funny?” she asks He is silent for a while She stares defiantly, her eyes offering a challenge He spots the traces of a fight deep within “No,” He answers and sighs.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
