This World
(“Depth Psychology Merit Badge”, 2015, original oil)
This world without question
Is exactly what it is
Everything we know
Everything we feel
Floats like oil
On its surface
And what lies beneath?
All we don’t know
A vast unconscious
Without question
In silence
Layer after layer
Waiting simply waiting
Oil comes from somewhere
You know.
