Manic State I

Spiraling off the edge 

Whirling whizzing dizzy life 

Vibrating out from my bones 

Burnt up inside by my own raging feelings 

Rising out of my brain like smoke 

Filling a balloon and floating away 

Looking down at my body with pity 

Pulling puppet strings 

Forcing flailing life into limp limbs 

Until a snip sets me back down
