Anonymous in the Town that Talks

<p>I am 43 old and it has been one of my dreams to write this poetry book. I thought it might inspire patients the world over to write. It alleviated the</p><p>boredom I felt in the hospitals in my admissions and created a little bit of fun. Eighteen years ago I found myself being forced into hospital by my Dad after breaking a window in a hotel and I went with it. But when we were both told there was nothing wrong with me I pretended to have something wrong with me to get in. I had a girlfriend who had been in the same hospital and I wanted to find out first what it was like. It was a crazy move but I felt that if I could plead insanity in court for breaking the window then it was justified. They are my thoughts day to day in the hospitals and some are from when I was in the Merchant navy and others when I was just writing for the fun of it.</p>
