Camels only know how to spit; they don't think for themselves or talk back. As the camel dies, a lion is born in its place. Lions discover both their roar and the art of preening. The lion may be a little shaky at first, so support and encouragement are vital. But once the camel begins to die (e.g., signaled by depression), there is no turning back. Symptoms occupy the space between the death of the camel and the birth of the lion. A therapist can be a good midwife during this liminal phase. — Stephen Gilligan

They stood on the porch
and were ready to knock,
when they heard heavy footsteps,
and a turn of the lock.

When what to their
curious eyes should loom,

Her face--oh, how scary!
Her hat was so pointy,
it frightened the fairy!

"Welcome. We have a surprise."
And the children yelled,
"Run! It's not a disguise!"

when the kids ran away.

as they danced with delight,
"Happy Halloween to all--
and to all a fright night! — Natasha Wing
