I think I see my therapist yonder

 

I think I see my therapist,

yonder in the shop.

Shall I say hello, shall I! shall I!

or shall I not?

 

What happens if he ignores me?

Or worse still, sees right through me!?

 

O I think I’ll just stay over here and shut my mouth.

And we can talk about it next time when I’m on the therapist couch.
