("Creation Myth 101", 2018, original encaustic)

Make Believe and Crazy

A world gone mad
Upside down, inside out
And if you don’t like it
You must be a phobe.

Gaslighting's nothing new
But today it’s all the rage 
In the name of a new religion
Of which thou shall comply.

But if you don’t 
Where does that leave you
Old and in the way
Or ready to slit our wrist.

It’s all make believe and crazy
No longer's a spade a spade
Now it's whatever you choose
A hoe or rake by any other name.

Maybe that’s the condition of some
But it used to be 
It wasn’t the delusion of all
Till asylum walls were overrun.

Now in the name of compassion
Everyone must drink 
The Kool-Aid of confusion
Or else…”The doctor will see you now...”
