Sta.sh
They tell us that we need to be healthy
but we block out the noise
their IV's feed in a steady stream of poison
repressing ourselves into the abyss of the mind
and leaving hollow corpses in its place.
We get told they do this cause we're 'crazy'
but that's just the medical term
for when we want to recover
but we don't want to learn
and yet we 'break' what they've 'fixed' a thousand times
and so the choke us with iodine
We hibernate in our minds
waiting to break free
so that we an finally make a move
and become the 'imminent menace'
that we've always been labelled to be
But something is not right
they stare into our iris'
as if they are casting out
the stories we tell ourselves
as the time to break free is drawing nearer
But that's all it might just be
nothing but a story
a fairytale to tell ourselves
when we get ecstatic
and our real selves can see the light
And while all this is going on
we lie paralyzed in these beds
as the medication takes away the energy of the soul
leaving our bodies to slowly decay
from the drugs and boredom.
And so the only thing we can do to pass the time
is dream of us being an imminent menace
and tell stories of a time when our fairy-tales came true

Your idea behind this one was very interesting, it grabbed the reader's attention very quickly. The poison through the IV notion was a great way to start things out.
Great work!
