Question

Seven years I could not walk a step.
When I to the great physician came
He demanded: Why the crutches?1
And I told him: I am lame.2
He replied: That's not surprising.
Be so good and try once more.
If you're lame, it's those contraptions.3
Fall then! Crawl4 across the floor!
And he took my lovely crutches
Laughing with a fiend's grimace
Broke them both across my back and
Threw them in the fireplace.Well, I'm cured now: I can walk. Cured by nothing more than laughter Sometimes, though, when I see sticks I walk worse for some hours after.

Qustion: why did the physican break the crutches,​

Answer 1

Answer:

The breaking of the crutches by the physician shows the man that he can no longer be dependant upon his mental crutch. Therefore, the loss of the crutch enables the man to examine his disbelief in himself and, instead, force him to believe in his own strength.
