A Recovery Blog

This blog is about my continuing recovery from severe mental illness and addiction. I celebrate this recovery by continuing to write, by sharing my music and artwork and by exploring Buddhist and 12 Step ideas and concepts. I claim that the yin/yang symbol is representative of all of us because I have found that even in the midst of acute psychosis there is still sense, method and even a kind of balance. We are more resilient than we think. We can cross beyond the edge of the sane world and return to tell the tale. A deeper kind of balance takes hold when we get honest, when we reach out for help, when we tell our stories.

Caged: Sexually Abused Boys




Caged

The teenage boys on the coast of California
Runaway youths from families of abuse
Had to cater to those older ladies
Who paid for fantasy instead of truth.

The boys' mothers taught them well
How to feed these women's egos
How to surf those waves of hell
With their damaged hearts and chained libidos.

Taught sexual addiction
By experts in disease.
The female pedophiles con themselves
And say they're out to please

But all these ladies do
Is to corrupt the bloom of youth
To rob the boys of their right to choose
To be free and not be used.
