ManicA Poem by kasGJust like the title saysI am up and down and inside out Within the confines of my existence A roller coaster ride of emotions A mixed bag of strange devotions One moment I feel free and the next I’m bound, gagged, and locked in captivity Not even a court order can get me out My jailor does not know acquiescence And we are annoyed by each other’s presence Or presence of mind And now I’m flying high above the clouds Feeling carefree and extraneous Untouchable, relaxed in my own skin Until I hit some turbulence and then I panic, my self-assurance vexed I lose the fight with gravity I’m plummeting to my demise among the crowds Who watch me free fall plainly just To witness something odd and spontaneous Or spontaneously blind © 2011 kasGAuthor's Note
