Bipolar Normalcy

crazy sanity
excited placidness
terrible wonderfulness
enthusiastically down

mountainous nothingness
unexpected anticipations
insanely normal
conscientiously uncaring

empathetic bullying
horrible kindnesses
guilty innocence
joyful depression

bipolar normalcy
conflicted understandings
crawling highs
maniacal lows

No Doctor could or should attempt to describe this affliction without first consulting with you Dr Caren, and not only did you describe it so perfectly, but you presented it as a poem as well. Superb topic, well executed! hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Caren, this poem describes it soooo well. It's a terrible thing to have to deal with by both the afflicted and the affected.

Then there’s that idiot who once hawked acne creams in the 80s, the oxymoron…
