Premium Member Pink Slips and Bipolar Vending Machines
My supervisor is a young, soft spoken Asian gal... Who averted my eyes as she handed me my end of the year "compensation award statement". For working weekends and holidays being an absentee on birthdays and funerals (thank God). Despite the company riding the gilded air currents like a diamond studded albatross, I'll get seventy-three cents an hour raise. I met her eyes...

Bipolar
In shadows deep where silence dwells,?Three tiny hearts weave whispered spells,?They dance in dreams with eyes of light,?Unaware of the encroaching night. A father’s laughter, a guiding hand,?Now echoes faint like steps on sand,?Bipolar’s grasp, a stormy tide,?Tore through their world, their gentle guide. He wore his smile like a fragile mask,?And fought the demons,...

Patient wait, I fight my fate

Sleep escaped, Without a farewell, She had not the grace To aspire my light, She proved to be darker Than her gaze, Glaring, glowering, Glowing with madness, Bipolar’s destroyer – two sides of the coin Despair, dread, doubt – depression Delight, elation, wired – manic Stages of dark and light, Day and night, A breath, a prayer, a silence Flooded with fire – Cold, brilliant desire…. Where she kindles a flame, A...

Bipolar
There was a day when my brain turned against me thirsting for daily dose of medication. My thoughts grew dim and every day more cloudy as if in fear of some intimidation. I fought against growing sense of agony words eluding my desired ambition. But the day came when the lights came back on Words spewing forth in an unending ribbon....

Premium Member There Is An Angel Who Sits Upon My Shoulder Who Goes By The Name Of Death
There is an angel who sits upon my shoulder who goes by the name of Death, And though I cannot always see him, upon my neck I can always feel his breath As he whispers to me relentlessly, deftly using my soul’s own Shibboleth. He is my phantasmagorical companion from which there has thus far been no escape, One...

Premium Member When I Am Up - For Mental Health Month
When I am up, every sky is a boundless, cloudless expanse of brilliantly blinding blue. When I am up, I am William the Conqueror and William Shakespeare and William Jennings Bryan all in one. When I am up, life is an eternity of perfect days punctuated by soul-shaking truths at every turn. When I am up, every person...

Premium Member For Manic, Listless, Bipolar, Mad Souls
For manic, listless, bipolar, mad souls, the rate of solitude increases fast, like the second derivative; to last, velocity accelerates near black holes, which tug light into singularity's sinkhole. If isolation never speeds up past, if desolation, forever steadfast, must for...
