The Mind of Madness

Inside the mind of madness the moon is the sun the sun is the moon
Inside the mind of madness teddy bears kill and dolls send chills
Inside the mind of madness fish have legs and oysters dance and sing
Inside the mind of madness tar breathe fire and cats smile

Inside the mind of madness unicorns are black and have blood upon their horns
In the mind of madness the walls live, breathe, and bleed
In the mind of madness cookies are killer and milk is sour and bitter
In the mind of madness people drown in children’s tears

In the mind of madness dresses are made from flesh, scales, cotton and insect silk
In the mind of madness wedding ceremonies take place from beyond the gates of cemeteries
In the mind of madness torture takes place for fun
In the mind of madness polyandry is the norm

In the mind of madness there is no shame
In the mind of madness girls wear fishnet, leather and all around tight clothes
In the mind of madness certain boys are toys
In the mind of madness there is no disease and nothing but living and undead dwell together in harmony

In the mind of madness fire and lava inhabits a moonlit meadow where the nightmare herds roam
In the mind of madness walking fish and dancing oysters inhibit the dark sea where drifting ruin drift
In the mind of madness killer dolls kill and giant cakes and tea cups lay around
In the mind of madness caterpillars are all knowing and the paper ants worship him while the samurai wasps attack them

In the mind of madness the queen loses her head as the undead card guards bite off her enemy’s heads
In the mind of madness voices from unknown sources can be heard within the head
In the mind of madness chemicals in the head cause the voices but the voices that are there aren’t really there causing the destruction in the mind of madness
In the mind of madness there is a mind of madness that causes more madness in the mind of madness

In the mind of madness it is you that has gone into madness and your head cannot be saved as the madness has devoured it now you are mad from reading this poem about madness and there is no return
In the mind of madness the crazy train runs rampant so hush little children and have no fear the man in the moon is the engineer all in the mind of madness

My inspiration came from the video game Alice: The Madness Returns, but I added my dark twists.
