Some people hear a voice in their head
That they don’t think it’s them,
But that’s okay.
They’re not schizophrenic,
They just don’t think that it’s them,
This lodging-voice of grey.
And some people hear a number of voices,
But know they’re them,
So they let them stay.
And some people hear no voice at all,
They’re only them,
A one-voice play.
Some have a voice-of-God narrator,
Or invisible ‘them’
Who must have their say –
Or something less reliable,
But they still hear them
On a quiet day…
Just diff’rent flavours of subconscious-
It works for them,
In their own calm way
And they’re each quite normal, each quite sane,
Are you one of them,
With a chatty stray ?
