Hearing Voices
by Timothy Gager
People that hear voices
Never hear
"you look great today"
or, "why don't you take a drive to the Hamptons?"
The voices never say,
"Have another donut."
or, "your boss loves your work."
They only tell you
to kill your parents
or someone important
like John Hinkley Jr.
Never
"It's a sunny day,
let's walk in its glory."
