Bipolar tendencies,
my colourful predicament,
the summer heat agitates mania,
the winter cold triggers sadness.

Bipolar tendencies,
both gift and curse,
to view the world soaring as an eagle,
to escape the world’s trampling feet as a cockroach.


Bipolar tendencies,
ignorant bliss and torturous wisdom,
apathy for the attractively wealthy,
empathy for the repulsively poor.

Bipolar tendencies,
both god fearing and atheist,
both the day and night,
both thankful and ungrateful.
