Anaglyph 3D Glasses


Diagnosed with mental disorders

pills after pills and careful supervision

dismayed by the lack of results-

Why is she still so down?

I'll show you around.

The world is brainwashed

View life through their prism glasses 

blocking out the peripheral world

While I cannot lift the analyph 3D glasses

which make me unwillingly omniscient 

The world and its problems an anchor

I have no strength and no partners 

Eventually it dawns on me 

That I'm not quite depressed,

But rather: aware.
