Our resident poet Stuart wrote these thoughts about a big issue for many people. He finds coming to the garden really helps him.
Obsession
O yes, they can drive us really mad - our peculiar obsessions.
Perhaps you are cleaning all the time or buying too many possessions.
Or are you being miserly and keeping all your savings?
Or you need to do or see something to satisfy your cravings?
Perhaps your obsession is so odd so no-one can understand.
May be it is has taken such a hold that it's getting out of hand.
What happens when you go cold turkey and you try to resist?
Do you find the awful yearnings still seem to persist?
Does stopping it induce your mind to keep forever niggling?
Or will you pace all about or endlessly be wriggling?
You could try to distract yourself, the obsession may diminish.
And talking should help as well, then it might completely finish.
