Hi, new friends! I wrote this poem after reading about all of these distinct kinds of delusions. I have first hand experience with about half of them, so I put together a ditty to learn all of the names of them. It is supposed to be humorous and not at all to make fun of a religion, mental illness, or person.

Delusional Limerick

Said Jesus to Pontius Pilate
they're watching my ablutions

but Pontius had a hand in those
persecutory delusions.

When granny went crazy
she started dippin' skole
said the devil made her do it
doc blamed delusions of control.

In “Harrison Bergeron”
the Handicapper General was telepathically podcasting
years before Fox News
began a scheme of thought broadcasting.

Remember the lady who swallowed the fly?
Well it made it to her brain without much exertion.
It whispered sweet nothings about her mortality.
I promise it wasn't just thought insertion!

When Calvin told Miss Wormood
aliens zapped out the spelling of “abdominal”
it actually could have been
this thing called thought withdrawl.

Henry Alford wasn't guilty
but he made the Alford plea
some said he was stupid
but he had delusions of being guilty.

After the surgeon cut his arm off
the patient reached out for low fat milk
so the surgeon put him in the psych word
for delusions somatic.

I once knew a man who thought he was Romeo.
He took a lethal dose.
He told me in his dying breath
he was NOT grandiose.

I have this poem
which is the best source you could reference.
That is if you trust someone
who has delusions of reference.
Thanks for this!

If I swallowed a fly I bet it would whisper sweet nothings about immortality. Just a hunch. I never swallowed one.
