I'm bipolar it said Today I smiled because it talked Perhaps before the child was consumed The man had been given maps Concerned with going back Perchance the dive into the psyche finds gold Nearer the quiet and calmed abyss Then there would remain companion With nets worked over and over And upon the threading A sleep A rest And a new retreat In the maze beyond my learning Where guides waited entire lifespans If only to meet me along my way And invested by them A scholars take In tools to share For the adventures begin anew

Lemons Over Ice
