Sickology
Old Sigmund attributed it to sex,
and for most sex is a hex,
you're damned if you do,
and damned if you don't.
I'd like to get into it,
but I won't… no I won’t.
There are those that like to play little games,
mess with our heads with praises and blames.
It's wise to avoid those that psychologize,
for to manipulate is their only prize.
They are all charlatans in sharper eyes.
And if you are crazy don't let it show,
crazy contributes nothing to know,
crazy takes up way too much time,
crazy will cost you your last dime.
And if you are genius don't let it show either,
genius is heinous in common folks' minds,
genius changes the way that we live,
common folks fear change's take and give.
So all you sickies, and you know who you are,
don't blame me when you raise your bar,
I won't follow the path that you want me to take,
your silly psychologizing leaves a wide wake.
And so I leave this ridiculous rant,
hopefully saner saying I can, not I can't.
It's a wonderful science dancing in your head,
it's a yawn for me, so I'm going to bed,
and won't think about it when I’m dead.
It’s not my ego, it’s your id.

I have a primary care doctor, an endocrinologist, neurologist, nephrologist, podiatrist, cardiologist, pulmonologist, and a urologist. As you can see, my calendar is pretty full. But after reading "Sickology," I think I have finally found a cure for all my ailments. Every time I visit one of the aforementionerd "-ists," they each want to know if I am interested in being set up for an appointment with mental health. I have to laugh, for perhaps I'm missing something here. Maybe they detect something that I haven't picked up on yet. I just don't know. Anyway, I loved this write, Ron. It is very cleverly written.

I've got my id.
I've made it this far,
despite the crazy things I've did.
and oh how I long for the voice of reason.

Insanity runs in my blood line,
But as for me my psychology is fine,
Though really I do find,
That my psychosis comes to me after I drink large amounts of wine...
