“Dilemma of The Psyche”

Dame Barbara on Jan 27, 2011

With all that is happening in our world today, it is getting harder to stay mentally and emotionally sane.

I see the signs

when I open the blinds;

what is and what’s to come,

of the world down to the lowest slum.

The future doesn’t look bright

in any shade of light.

In all relations there has become a breach

and common decency is out of reach.

How do we survive?

On what do we thrive?

The stability of the psyche is at risk,

and failing in a manner that is brisk.

The economic dilemma grows worse each day,

making it harder to live and find our way.

With all of that said,

how do we protect ourselves

from becoming mentally and emotionally dead?

DB…this is an extremely powerful political statement that I know that I can certainly relate to…it is quickly coming to the point where I am feeling overwhelmed by all the changes taking place in and around me and quite honestly I don’t like what I see…but I voted and so you can see that I liked this sobering thought – this is a very unusual piece coming from your hand, but it is an astounding peice of literary art…thanks for putting paper to pen to get these thoughts in order…thanks and take care…
