Gas-lighting

















Gas-lighting

This term has leapt 
From a '40's movie to
Our present time and place..
Simply those tactics
Of lies and deception to
Cause others to accept
An alternate reality..not their own..
An expression to serve us
In our need to understand
Our  politics with virus 
In our story today..

The cure of our malady:
Recognize the Screen 
On which this modern version
Of the old movie is playing...!

Good Gas-lighting piece...

David Whyte

“You must learn one thing:
the world was made to be free in.

Give up all the other worlds
except the one to which you belong.

Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn

anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.”


― David Whyte
