Poem of the Week: “When the Lunatics Arise” by Bonnie Schell
Excerpt:
The nameless dead ascend, limp forward then soar, breaking through the thin clouds.
They rise, shouting their full names into the skies.
And drift from numbered body to body whispering, “It is safe. It is safe.”
Shackled, sterilized, lobotomized, now upright the strangers stand, meet and greet their peers
From across the land – 300,000 acres – of public asylums and state hospitals.
From deep valleys they arise, levitating above the priests with their liturgies of exorcism,
And the doctors with their Diagnostic and Statistical Manuals.
They run up the hills and are not weary. They fly and do not tire or fall.
Look up! Open your SUV and condo windows. Crook your neck and see!
All the shunned ones, missing from scrapbooks, removed from Ancestry trees,
All the ones who swallowed secrets, stuttered, became silent
All the ones never invited to the weddings, graduations, birthdays, bar mitzvahs, and death beds, Deprived of connection, now say “Hello you.”

Mad in America, in collaboration with Usorum, is creating an exciting new space on our site where the collective wisdom of lived experience can be shared about specific topics important to our community.
This initiative called Brainstorm provides the Mad in America community an opportunity to “offer better options for those who are struggling, and to create new solutions for quality of life.”
This first brainstorm, which will be open for one week from October 2 to October 9, will address this question: “Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal: If this has worked for you, what helped?” Find out how to join the discussion! https://www.madinamerica.com/usorum/
