Last night the silence was broken
One of the crew freaked out
She thought the shaman had ill intent
By dislocating her power to shout
The reason for the silence was simple
It was done with love in his heart
So that we could get to know ourselves better
It’s wise to put the horse before the cart
Yet in the portals of higher dimensions
Reality can become twisted and skewed
Revealing the subconscious is like playing with fire
You deal with the junk your mind has spewed
So after the ceremony when all were in bed
She approached me for some reassurance
I told her that everyone loves her
Prayed she had good medical insurance
Mild schizophrenia is no laughing matter
The roads it can lead to are dark and demonic
That is not to say all sufferers are evil
But sometimes exorcism is just the tonic
I’ve experienced first-hand the ill effects
People I love have been bent out of shape
So I reacted to her from a place of fear
Like a perpetual victim of rape
What she needed most was loving stability
I should have come from a secure place
Allowing whatever will be to be
Instead of putting her sanity into a race
Don’t get me wrong I sure did my best
I tried to console her as best I could
I helped her find her phone to call a friend
He talked to her straight like a friend should
In the morning I set off everyone’s bells
Raising awareness of the loose canon
By this time the silence had vanished
Paranoia had become the latest fashion
When she appeared we all held our breath
Looking for signs of inner distress
It turned out she was a bright as a button
Only having flirted with being the Devil’s mistress
I, for one breathed a sigh of relief
Being responsible for telling her of our quest
To go deeper into the wells of our being
We have to be prepared to face any test
She decided that enough was enough
No need to push for the hell of it
She went home to ponder the strange events
Leaving us with bed sheets covered in shit
Cheers!
