“Poetry and the Escape from Reality”

 

Artwork by John Diamond, M.D.

Virtually all poetry
has a lung meridian problem,
what I call “Wonderland”
– an escape from reality
into fantasy.

What do they fear?
Who?
Basically, always their mothers
– what they fear is the truth
about them –
always the mother they fear.

Poetry, healing poetry,
rare as it is –
proclaims not matrodeima
but Matrophilia.

Where are the poets
who proclaim their love
for the Love?
