The shadow of a human

One side of us is good and the other is bad

Sometimes we are playing the good side

Then late we play the reverse.

The brighter the appearance

The darker the shadow

so Jung decided

Which may explain

why he and Heidegger

did not see the truth about the Nazis.

Jung got a top job

because all the Jewish psychoanalysts had to flee Austria and Germany

And later France

Jung was unable

to use his own insights

I guess we are all a bit like that.

But we must keep trying…..

We need to accept the pain

Of knowing we have a shadow.

If not,we will do harm

for if we don’t know it

we cannot control it
