HEALING
I am not a mechanism, an assembly of various
sections
And it is not because the mechanism is working wrongly that I am ill
I am ill because of wounds to the soul, to the deep emotional self
And the wounds to the soul take a long, long time, only time can help
And patience, and a certain difficult repentance,
Long, difficult repentance, realization of life’s mistake, and the freeing
oneself
From the endless repetition of the mistake
Which mankind at large has chosen to sanctify
D.H.
