VERSE AND SONG
Z. Sharon Glantz does not claim to be a poet or a psychologist. She has been trained by two therapists and applied to obtain credentials (she also learned to be wary of therapists – too many are wackadoodle.) She does write verse and polyrhythmic songs (see her play, Stages of Ages). She is also a lifelong musician whose written a smattering of song (coming soonish).
Psychotherapists and others who use psychology in their work can find validation in this short book of whimsical verse. Content was turned into a one-act play and a few machinimas (The Sanity Patrol Is Out to Get You and Unconvention at the Convention).

THE SANITY PATROL IS OUT TO GET YOU
The Sanity Patrol is out to get you
You, the uncategorical, scavenging the mundane for meaning
You, the seeker, expanding understanding until it bursts into cathartic insight
You, the unique, conjuring new perspectives by unloading old baggage
You, the choreographer, gracefully entwining artistry with authenticity
Yes
The Sanity Patrol has come
How do you greet them?
Relief and fear
I’m okay? you exclaim
The Sanity Patrol refuses to pass judgment on your enigmatic idiosyncratic virtuousity
No
You are not alone
On the contrary
You’re part of a greater whole
The Sanity Patrol knows how to
dance with circumstance
embrace disgrace
release the beast
Laughter is what they’re after
The world’s a giant cookie jar
Will you chip in?
