O Bipolar, Harass Me Nevermore

O bipolar, harass me nevermore!
     Depart from me! For Easter Sunday's here,
     a comfort which transforms this time of year,
and gelds you like oxen for evermore.

O minotaur, you cursed bull! Whether more
     man than beast, for you I'll not shed a tear;
     away from me, fiend—never to come near!
Be gone, creature! Leave me ever the more. 

So, one day, very soon I'll know new life
     (though, like a captive in your hellish maze,
a labyrinth and scheme of puzzling strife,
     despair, gloom, confusion, and dark malaise,
I languish like prey butchered by your knife)
    as hope arrives, freeing me for endless days!
