unchartered waters

dizzy dizzy dizzy 

that's what my baby's been feeling 
and we are in a tizzy
trying to help her out of this

we tried doctors
neurologists 
ent specialists 

we did tests and procedures 
inner ear middle ear tests
blood transfusion

we tried alternative medicines 
ayurveda
homeopathy 

we tried prayer
temples with red strings and water 
churches with blessings  

we tried counselling 
beach walks
movies shopping 

she was still dizzy dizzy dizzy 

5 months on as of August 
she has only been to school 11 weeks 
out of 28 weeks of school so far 

yesterday we tried a Bhuddist Master 
who told us of our 7 souls
and 1 of hers who had gone away

another had attracted that aspect of her
and it (she?).had left 
possibly at genting? 

maybe, who knows 

point is
one had gone 
so we called her back

and he sealed her in
gave her an amulet 
and a charm, a prayer to seal the self 

maybe she had lost a part of her mind...
mind soul heart 
how different are these anyway 

and now we have her back
and it doesn't matter does it ? 
what is real and what is not

only what works 

so if she can hold on to her soul 
seal herself in and meditate 
she can take hold of herself 

be in charge 
steady her heart mind body and soul
not be at the mercy of the winds 

and so we pray 
this dizziness will end 
will end.
