Psychosis Drenched in Bipolarity

What a beautiful sunny day eh?

To stroll out in the mountains

Watch the chimeras play.

To dash through the fields of arms

We'll trample the Scars

In water graves of yesterday,

'cause you know what I say

Names Damien Cuyler

And I'm here to stay...

But I say

Take your gear and run away

For the demons will grab you

Those tall, silky mannequins

Aren't they mind numbing...

It's not what you think

Now the black ground will sink,

Sky etched in grey

I guess you'll go back some day...

The horror begins

Ceiling closing in

Everything will vanish

For this social stigma

Will replace with bipolar...

Enigma...

They call it terminal psychosis

Nothing else can explain this,

The 'manic depressive episodes'

And the drive to kick all the problems home.

Haha! Its all a dream!

This Cuyler guy has never been seen!

I'll laugh and joke

But really I'll know...

Within my confines

His teeth on the cage will grind

Until that day I lose my mind...

I'll wait for my angel to come

Hes born from shadows in corners eh son,

And he'll take it all

Or spear me with each horn.

Let my hands free.

I do not belong in here.

Wow, I love the imagery used here. I think my poetry may be of some interest to you. Thanks for sharing.

Wow! This is an incredible piece, the flow is mesmerizing. Well written my friend, well written

This has a musical quality that might be good as a song, too. Nicely-written.

Nicely written Larnie, really enjoyed this

[Brook]

Nicely done.
I like it, very much.

I'd cut "out" in the second line of the first stanza--it's not needed. "Watch the chimeras play" what an interesting choice of animal--I love it! Hmmm, I get the two distinct parts/moods (mountain= freedom vs "cage" = trapped) but I'd like to see more of the mountain part, half and half, equally. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you I'll be sure to do so. Yes I wanted to express the ideal of creating a world away from reality and a chimera sprang to mind also depicting the distortion of reality and the mind.
