bees with honey

I told the therapist of my anger issues…strained family relations…inability to keep a job…telling the masses and all God’s children unfiltered thoughts that will one day place me in a prison cell…

you know, the therapist said proudly, You can catch more bees with honey…, a smile…a flip of the grey streaked hair..

the degrees were on the wall…undergraduate work…a Masters…licensed in this state…licensed in that…surely one would be impressed…

so…let me get this straight, both hands placed to temples, Seven years of school with a Masters and that’s the best you can come-up with….really..

she smiled…began to speak…, well… the old saying…

Yes, ran my hand against my neck quickly, You think Freud and Jung came up with that theory…

David…I am saying…

you’ve said enough…you’re whole profession has said enough..
