Confronting profound consternation
The positive faces negation
But for unions that matter
Illusions must shatter
To welcome the reintegration

The Power of Wow

Enduring the Culture of Wow
To reduce our attention and how
Just a swipe at the screen
But it’s not what we mean
When we talk about Being Here Now

’Tension in Gethsemane’

Where the olives and ego were pressed
Three brethren fell into a rest
At a crossroads inside
He was forced to decide
In the garden where Christ took his test

Special thanks to my favorite podcast, "This Jungian Life', which has provided so much inspiration

The Psychiatrist is in (with Charlie Brown)

From the pages of Peanuts came Linus
Neurotic but here to align us
From his blankie one learns
About coming to terms
Lest our character flaws should define us

Thinking about Lucy and her psychiatric booth in the Peanuts comics. Thought it was time to psychoanalyze Linus.

Oh when the saints

There’s a monk by the name of St. Francis
Who strolls in the forest and prances
While whispering words
To the mammals and birds
Who religiously fall into trances

A new series of limericks begins

Tolerance

It’s not that my truth is superior
Or that your way of life is inferior
We both would agree
And a blind man could see
That we value a vibrant interior

Reality

To live a good life that’s effective
You have to be somewhat selective
Your mind isn’t frozen
Your thoughts can be chosen
The truth after all is subjective

This month only, all proceeds from custom limericks ($60 each) will go directly to victims of Hurricane Helene in North Carolina
