I plead madness,
Caused by stress,
surrounded by distress
my mental barriers
broke down,
and I hit the ground.

I plead madness,
and I beg of mercy,
Mercy for this unworthy
soul of mine.
too thirsty, running
after a penny and dime.

I plead madness,
and I blame the world
for this twisted way
that I have turned.

Yesterday I started to tell crazy story that I would do, like stapling my ears. And then I would say that I went mad, because of the work stress. I would go in medical leave, pleading that I went mad due to the same stress. Win, win.
After work, I wrote this.
