about

So I'm no psychologist (uh-oh, armchair general alert!), but it seems to me that some psychological definition, which 'should' be wholly medical, bears more than a hint of sociological influence ... discuss.
I'd like your essays by Monday, NO MORE THAN 2000 WORDS! (you meandering bar-stewards).
Yours,
Professor Daffodil

lyrics

Used to be these lonely souls
Who never really fit
Used to be
We called those people lunatic
Matron of our nightly terror
Hanging pale and fey
Lady have you made
Anymore loons today

Pretty, pretty flower
Gaze for hours and hours
Pretty, pretty flower

Used to be we found you
Melting bodies in your bath
Used to be
We called those people sociopath
Sure it seems unhealthy
Being too much like the rest
But for inner kindnesses
We can't divest

Pretty, pretty flower
Gaze for hours and hours
Pretty, pretty flower

Now it seems
Oh kings and queens
Semantically enough
To blame our loons
And mentalists
On Narcissus
Sure too much self-lovin'
Left me calluses and more
But nob'dy should find
Enemies in their mirror

Pretty, pretty flower
Gaze for hours and hours
Pretty, pretty flower
