guardians of the mind

You should be more grateful
to those guardians maligned
that hide all those memories
to protect your mind

the sexual exploitation
violence you can't recall
abuse done by institutions
like Stowlangtoft hall

they hide away the memories
and protect them like a bank
in the recesses of the mind
your synapses draw a blank

a curse on all hypnotists
and talking therapy
that can not cure the pain
but let your demons free

with their interfering
trying to make it right
you relive the terrors
with flash backs in the night

more vivid than dreaming
the memories you recall
you get the taste the smell and fear
you relive it all

so treat them to opioids
if you think you must
don't try to get around them
they're hiding your disgust
