Journal entry:
Discrimination
They want
To track us in
A database, each one
Who is mentally ill, as if
We were criminals who should have no rights.
Is it not enough suffering
Isolation and the
Punishment of
Illness?

I am grateful:
1. Jeremy and Jayden came by for a few minutes this afternoon.
2. I found my way to town down unfamiliar roads.
3. The Rolling Stones 50 was still on the table at Sam’s Club, so I was able to get my copy.
4. Mom’s medicine was available today.
5. I remembered one of my dreams when I woke up.
I hope you have had a wonderful Friday. I am somewhat disappointed, but there were some very good moments today. Working creatively makes me feel my effort is worthwhile and I believe you will find it so if you engage your imagination. Do something you can share with the world.
As a prompt, write about a type of discrimination you have witnessed or experienced. This should give you plenty of material for a poem, story, or journal entry. If you use this prompt, please leave a link to your work in the comments below.
Thank you so much for taking time to read my blog. I am very interested in your thoughts, suggestions, or criticism, so please leave a comment. If you enjoyed your visit here, perhaps you would like to subscribe to Chronicles.
