Poem: Urgency in a request to take note
Essential secret discovered today
In a common place far from universal truth
Empress of absoluteness fell to Earth
Foundations of instability collapsed
Ropes woven by vigor characteristics
Instability, impulsiveness, irrational realties
Woven broad with desperate fears of abandonment
Were cut loose today
The broken effect has finally laid to rest
Ms. Absolute of effective mayhem finally skipped away
Hand in hand with a familiar self-image
They let go of the balloons that were unable to interfere with
Social and occupational functioning
Emotional distress disappeared into the atmosphere
The essential secret safe to whisper from thy lips
The broken affect known absolute no longer
Macroscopic amerlioration bid farewell to the skipping mates
Never once muttering how delicate was the head
Or even more vital the power those two mates had
Joyous was the day the papers read:
Absolute of effective mayhem finally fell dead...
