WELCOME HOME FROM THE NUT HOUSE


WELCOME HOME FROM THE NUT HOUSE

“Why did it happen ?
What went wrong ?
She had always appeared
stable minded and strong.”

“They say she had some kinda
break down.
She became unglued.
The cops found her walking
down the street in the nude.”

“Whoa ! in the nude ?”
“Yes,in the nude.
Keep it on the down low.
She really is crazy,you know ?
I heard they had to shock her brain.”
“My goodness,really ?”
“Yeah,and she will never be the same.”
“Wow!”
“As a neighbor she was always strange.
Conversation wise she never wanted to exchange.
Always on the run,having too much fun.Never quite done with this one and that one.

Thirty days in the nut house,
now she’s quite as a mouse.
Look there she is across the street.
Welcome home dear !
Ain’t she sweet ?”

What the gossip mongers did not know.

In the war her boyfriend had died,
and she  became petrified.
