Analysis of Asylum
They say it’s okay to not be okay
But yet there are asylums
For people that are different
“Not okay” in their mind
So they bind them in a straight jacket
When they could be sharing their ideas
Yes he, she have different views
But those strange ideas you’ve locked away
Unable to be heard
Are still unique views and ideas
