The Missed Course: Experience

Poem

By K.A. SmithPublished about a year ago 1 min read
I wrote this being in the frameworks of a Certified Recovery Peer Specialist. Enjoy this poem.

For thought,

Bleuler, the name foresees.

And rooted Greek

"Schiz-"

To cut

The "phren,"

Heart, mind, sanity...

Wit.

-------

With

-------

Five courses taken from a "head-shrinker,"

The shrink.

Must be a big thinker.

But don't need

A coated pill with

A dent.

"Tripping," is everyone?

Missing a meal,

It's evident.

Thank you for reading!
