Madness


What if madness is not smoldering within war’s twisted heaps of metal?
Not found on a bloody knife tossed from a highway overpass?
Not a single upturned high heel shoe discovered in the woods?
What if madness is not the malicious threat echoing electronic on voicemail?
What if madness is now soundly sleeping within an infant under soft blankets in the room next to you?
What if madness is rooted in group consensus?
What if a madness is a single, immutable tragicomic function?
