BIPOLAR-VERSION FIRST

(Remembering Mom)


As to any manner of work,
she always would say
"I don't know where to start."
So, I always thought there were options,
and I always start in the middle.
I go at one speed: FAST.
I'm in a passion now!!
Moving rapidly, working to a frenzy,
I'm at the height of perfection.
It will be the achievement of all time.
No one could do a better job than I am.
And now, everyone is pleased.
But I feel the expected drop coming --
the pull from mania to depression.
I jump from here to there; the way I do things;
my moods jump from high to low,
Up to down to down to up.

There is no even keel for this bipolar mind.
