sharing the wealth

i box up my collection
of psychology books. 
self help manuals.
my thick copy of the DSM.
twenty one by last count.
i say goodbye.
carefully putting them into
the large box
then tape it shut.
it's time to share all
that i've learned.
i carry them all to my
therapist's office and find
a seat in the crowded
room. i ring her bell.
she comes out and says
thank you, i'll put these
on my shelf, i'm so 
glad they helped.
do you need to talk.
i tell her no, not today.
not tomorrow. i'm actually
good to go.
but stay tuned, one never
knows.
