All Is Suspect

lewisgale mental hospital

all is suspect

all is suspect

 

if you teach terrible wrong

ways to be

 

(see, believe, achieve)

 

all is suspect

all is suspect

 

until you get better

'til you change,

'til you heal

 

(ordeal, reveal, repeal)

  • Comment from author about the poem: (physician heal thyself first)\r\n---------------\r\n\r\n*suspect: untrustworthy due not to a lack of ethics or good practices (according to the current rules of a system), but due to a lack of a good enough system or heart that can actually be trusted. i.e. love of another as oneself, when ones self is taken to mean: the highest forms of good or ethics, not a human system too low in thinking and or too enamored by profits to be able to become the highest trusted kind of people (example: what would Jesus do? 1. feed those who come? 2. listen, visit? 3. teach, preach holy words? 4. pray?\r\n\r\n---------------\r\n\r\nphysician\r\n/fĭ-zĭsh′ən/\r\n\r\nnoun\r\n2.

    Powerful work.

  • sorenbarrett

    A most creative poem that speaks to more of us than those with severe problems. Very nicely done

      thanks. I wrote without the added words in parentheses first and was wanting to add three words afterwards. I think I had others originally but forgot them... so ended up being like this. 🙂

      Wow. Powerful, profound, purposeful. This poem hits hard and, I agree with Soren, this is much relevant to far more than those with "severe" issues. Well done! 🌹👏

        thanks for your kind comment. I'm not sure how many people poems here will reach but I guess if it helps anyone that could be good.

          Indeed. That is how I view it, at least, and why I share mine. You are most welcome, my friend.
