The Bipolar Expedition
In case you haven't noticed or don't know
I quickly travel from pole to pole
One minute happy and then so sad
One little slight can make me mad
For me there is no neutral, just stop or go
I cannot stop from letting my emotions flow
I try to stay where everyone says I should be
That is not the makeup of me
My mind is constantly on a wild ride
Like a rollercoaster ride I am jerked side to side
When I am at one pole I am attracted to the other
When I am stuck between the two poles I smother

Most real writers/artists have been bi-polar..sad to say...but there is a correlation between this defect and creativity...the list is online, but a few were: Hemingway, Georgia O'Keefe (painter) Poe (I believe) F Scott Fitzgerald...Sylvia Plath to name a few..the list is very long online..

Thanks Nika although I would never compare myself to any of those talented writers. Thanks Hulla for the kind words.
