"Are you mad?"

People ask me this question so many times I don't know any more.

Am I mad

I don't know.

You tell me.


Every time they put me in the asylum,

I pay close attention to everything.

The route,

How tight the security is,

If there are any cameras,

EVERYTHING.


I have a very vivid and reliable memory

I pay close attention.

I stay for a bit,

adding new bits of information.

Then eventually,

I escape.


I have a strange hobby.

I have the need to stab something,

At least once a day.

Doesn't matter what,

Doesn't matter how,

I just do.


Something about screams and blood excite me.

It doesn't actually have to be stabbing,

Just as long as the screams and blood is there.


If I don't my hands twitch,

Then my head,

And when I'm unconscious,

For example when I'm sleeping,

It just happens.


So am I mad?

I don't know any more.

YOU TELL ME.
