I Is We-We Is I-Bi-Polar

it consumes me and turns me into a Z   O   M    B   I   E
                                                
  I beacme a fiery goddess                           I HAD A psychotic B
of destruction                                                                     R

(ME)
"HOW ARE YOU?"                   i am composed mostly of INSANITY
                                              DYSFUNCTION AND ADDICTION TO LIFE=A MESS
even the CRAZIEST people have moments of lucidity

 (ME)                        I AM HERE TODAY & GONE TOMORROW       
  "WHO ARE YOU"                    
                                i finally learned not to try and change the world but to change 
                                                                   MYSELF
                       crazy is what crazy does
MY MENTAL DISORDER CAN BE ARRESTED AND DETAINED WITHOUT PREJUDICE

                                           (ME)
                              "THE SUN IS HOT"
do you get it yet?
                          
    TO YOU:I HAVE BI-POLAR AND I KNOW FIRST HAND 
                THAT MANY PEOPLE GO UNDITECTED AND
                 IGNORED WE NEED TO BE MORE OPEN TO
                 MENTAL HEALTH AND TRY WALKING IN "OUR" 
                                       SHOES!!!!!!!!

My bi polar kids are stubborn, driven and have a roller coaster ride built in. The stubborness is mandatory for anyone who is successful. She can go from zero to sixty in two seconds. There is a lack of understanding that yanks my chain at times. God Bless. Go for the Gusto!! Vince

Hi Brandy... this is a curiously compelling write, being led all over the page, like a search for something..... "i finally learned not to try and change the world but to change MYSELF " .... reflects beautifully on a state of mind.... ps.. thanks for all your recent comments Brandy.. all, most appreciated
