Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.LIVE from Psycho Babylon
Baby boomer born again
songstress / chanteuse
airs her pain
pensive windswept
in the rain
vacant on the CD cover
lost her mind
or lost her lover
press RECORD
and leave it on
open like a telethon
phone the shrink
and sing the song
Psycho Babylon, you know?
where the messed up
pop stars go
and comedians
spend their money
re-emerging
not as funny
out they come
new book / CD
My Psychologist and Me
kicking ass at 43
with the aid of therapy
Take the cure
it's not a con
life's a couch
to lie upon
call the press
and sing the song
and on and on
and on and on
