Poetry as a therapy are you out of your mind
why can't it be just a pleasant thing for me and
not be some contrived quackery to help relieve
me of my time and money isn't that funny.
Let's talk about my troubling dreams taking me
places I'd rather not be like a battle
field with people dying all around me in defense of
single minded philosophy that some maniacs have the
audacity to call free
or in a world where people think they have to
bow and grovel at other peoples feet
that would be complete loonacy don't you agree
for a world like that would simply be a nightmarish
fantasy certainly not a place I'd want to be
that's plain to see.
Fortunately my world is fine everyone working side
by side to peacefully advance us all to find that
paradise that Adam and Eve sacrificed.
