A sample of the poetry in Journey of Storms . . .
Oh to be written up
I stumbled across my analyst
at the library today,
not in the flesh
but in a prodigious tome.
It seems he wrote me up,
disguised me with a number
but I knew me,
he couldn’t fool me.
It made me mad
to be discussed in that objective way.
Of course, I’d have been madder still
had he ignored me.
I also was quite sure I knew
patients numbers one and two.
One of two’s demeanor
preceded me on Fridays
and number one, I’m almost sure
was always coming in the door
as I was leaving Tuesdays.
