You know the type.
Manipulative.
Loves to screw your brain.
Messes your mind any way they can find,
Is hurtful and cruel.
Then does it all over again.
It might be an ex or a current,
It could be a female
Or male,
It should be someone
You best, or ignore,
Then their mindfuck might fail.
It could be a boss
Or a neighbour,
A colleague who won’t give you rest.
Or kids in the ‘hood
Who just won’t be good.
Think what to do for the best.
It could be someone in your family
With an ex
Who’s really a prat.
Help make them see that his dick’s really wee,
Then you can both
Laugh about that.
It could be a friend
Who’s no friend at all,
Delights in bringing you down,
Dump them.
No one needs that crap,
A ‘friend’ who makes you feel like a clown.
Whoever they are
Remember your mind
Is yours, not a fairground pot luck.
Demand they desist,
Ignore if you wish
Or tell them you’re having no truck…
Ah, you thought that last line
Just had to rhyme
With ‘luck’ and a word I’ve used before.
Ok, then, we’ll say it again.
No mindfucking here.
Close that door.
My banter is intended as humour
But the message is one
To heed.
No one, not any, known past or in present,
Has the right to
Mess with your heid!
It could be someone
Whose words are no fun
Or actions are designed to convey
Ridicule, stress
Sadistic duress.
Don’t engage then they cannot play.
It might be yourself
Who’s the culprit,
Battering away at your brain.
Ego destroyed,
Validity void
Stop it! Don’t do it again.
A flower with filaments tender,
Seeking to bloom
Where it can,
Nurture your mind,
Stuff others who find
Pleasure in ruining elan.
Give what is due
But whatever you do,
Keep your mind well intact.
Those who insist
On taking the piss
Should know a couple of facts.
Spirit of self is a wonder
Shared,
A blessing two-fold,
But fucked with for fun
Is just not on.
Resist, persist, be bold.
It could be the politicians
Obvious I know,
That’s their art,
Assisted by media
And spin ,they begin
To screw your head and your heart.
Don’t fuck with my mind, you moron!
My head is my own!
Try that cheer.
Say it again till they believe it.
And then
Say it again, so you hear.

I’d love to lay claim to the term. But I can’t. 😦 Just so happens it’s a very apt way to describe brain messers. A bit of fun and a whole lot in earnest. It doesn’t have to be my tortured soul though. I can tune into others’. It’s a gift! ;)x
