Loving the Helplessness

—

by

Deborah Marchant’

in Conscious Death Anxiety, Non-conscious death anxiety, Self Reflection

floating on the flows

over Life’s boulders,

love this

not hate it

fear it

nor debate over it.

Don’t underestimate

loving the benefits of helplessness.

You have been rigidly shown, taught and told,

to strain against, pull apart, push into hold tight lip controlling.

Obsessively controlling

is filling up

hospital beds, cults, divorce courts,

AA meetings, beauty parlors, prisons, airports,

church pews, military bases, religious schools,

gun shops, shopping malls,

and graveyards.
