If I was to go, With dignity, I hope so, But what would I know? About honour and valour, Qualities of a hero! /|\

A very touching and deeply introspective poem, Rick. Ride the wave of your gifted talent as a poem to stay a-crest (up) and keep those downs from engulfing you. I was diagnosed as bipolar too, but hey, what do the shrinks know, eh. Love the poem though. Many blessings of love an peace to you, bro.

Like Leonard Cohen, a little self-deprecation makes for good poetry and song! :) What qualifies a hero anyway...

life brings us so much knowledge and just taking those steps everyday with a positive mind and a helping hand to those in need is just being a hero already. Hugs Eve

I think I'll just skip my funeral, those things are always so depressing. :) Nicely done Rick.
