The Beginning
Once, five years ago
I heard two voices
They were the divine feminine and divine masculine
Also the government
When they clicked their mouses and typed on their keyboards
And shouted that I’m the president
I heard my old psychiatrist, too
We had deep intellectual conversations
He was my guide, too
Within the crowded air
Offshoots of male and female sung “Happy, Happy Birthday”
Ominously
And poked at my throat
At the invisible rectangular table
Their presences in their particular chairs
Pulling my abdomen
While all alone to another’s perception
I thought I unlocked a level of spirituality
But I could not get to the next. #Schizophrenia #MentalHealth #MightyPoets #Psychosis
