Shakey is a Typical Man

I look up to Shakey; for his opinion matters;
Even, though, when he is plowed; he is as mad as the mad hatter.
I don't think that many drunks respect ladies;
They consider them whores that come straight from Hades.
That is what sexist men, in my life, have taught me;
Despite all of the expensive gifts they have bought me.
For, my ex and my man have mental problems, too;
That often make me feel defensive and blue.
I hate having to fight the disrespect of the memories of my ex;
He damaged me so much, that all I think that men want is sex.
Abuse in my life has given me so many afflictions;
I think that's why I have nicotine and alcohol addictions.
For, so many people have damaged my fragile mind;
That is why, to most people, I am unkind.
I would rather live in my own universe;
Where I could be an angel or pegasus; I wouldn't need to rehearse.
For, it would be me without extreme obsession;
That is caused by schizophrenia and severe depression.
But, my mental illness makes my personality;
Into having a very creative mentality.
I guess I'm lucky to be insane;
For, it energetically inspires my abused brain!
