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 eternity blast, then controls

despair all? Not so! Space-time's curvature
     let's us all firmly stand on Earth's hard ground
of hope: shielded by her vaulted feature
     of pure blue sky, and atmosphere all-round
this sun-bathed orb (free from mankind's nature, 
     this life's dismay, and gamma-ray background)!
