Asylum
Concise expression was the topic of my creative writing class tonight. One of our in-class assignments was to write about an experience using only ten objects. I wrote about my first full-time social work job at Eastern Pennsylvania Psychiatric Institute (EPPI)
Skeleton keys
Locked doors
Institutional green walls
DSM-III
Psychosocial assessments
Biting teeth
Shoes covered in ink
Clipboard
Bomb shelter
Bullet through glass
