A Quick Message to the Majority

You are ill, and it ain’t Covid.

I am not even going to waste time searching out a nice picture for this story, who cares anyway.

And besides, this message won’t come as good news to many, I bet.

You are ill, and it ain’t Covid.

It is something much worse.

I am going to call it Howard Hughes Syndrome, or Maybe Michael Jackson syndrome, you’ll see why.

How do I know?

It isn’t because I think I had some kind of revelation.

Nope, I’ve known something like this illness all my life.

I was brought up with it.

Mental illness.

So I know how to recognise its symptoms.

It manifests very simply as logic blindness.

When simple logic can no longer be seen, there it is, the illness exposed, plain as day.

I am not telling you because I hate you, but because I love you, like my own Mum.

She was a sufferer, all of my life, it officially started when I was born, both her illness, and my life.

So I grew up requiring powers of logic more than capable of making up for frequent lack of hers, bless her soul.

And now I am telling you, you are ill, because you clearly can’t see logic.
