Being
The rhythm of ancestors’
drums beat in our hearts,
swinging arms, pounding feet.
Sacred circle we breathe,
faces turned to the sun.
Ancient dancing beat,
sky, land and water
of this we are!
Smoke curling into the sky,
connected eternally on the wind,
in the becoming, still.

Focus
The scars run
as deep as the pain
but Adam’s seed
lies deeper still
on this bed of moans
seeing things through
this greasy lens of pain
causes me to look deeper
beyond my shaking hands
and the desperate rasp
soon the pills will dull
the acidic ache of long-broken bones
and the scars that hold me in
can you see beyond
Satan’s evil brandings
God’s gentle man –
this “WHO” I became?

Normal
Trying to be normal in a world of pain
is like trying to make a Jag x-j 6 out of a '79 Datsun
Put on the mask, hide reality
the decisions we make and those made for us
as terrible fate metes out it's yeas and woes
the new old me, knew me
when I was the old new me
but now the heavy chains of pains
wounds you cannot see
are nothing more than holes,
big and small
that let little bits of light out
shining like a crazy-diamond sparkle in God's eye
The "new normal" that mocks in the mirror
what is truth? memories of before?
creased with use yellowed and faded
what do they mean?
Framing the world with an inbalanced brain
a new prime directive -- "better living through better chemistry"?
Hook line and sinker we have been bought
these vicious barbs in my flesh,
the lines of entrapment come in little bottles
plant a seed, grow a felony
like a circle-jerk of monkeys
ears in other's fingers
set up heroes of the new order
captured with fauxtography
tails wagging dogs
tell me, what is crazy
and how is normal?

in significance
The night will turn to day and then fade away, what is the meaning of this?
And how small and still in the great, spinning universe I seem!
Yet, I am the same as the glory of the morning that soon too, will fade.
What is this feeling that grips like a wet boot, refusing to be put off?
The face of a friend, shining in youth, glorious in the moment remembered,
this troubling thought that it all is chemicals and electricity with no meaning!
What is that fleeting feeling, this empty, yearning ache?
Oh, I wish I could just know what this is, this half-remembered shard
torn from my mind! How I wish I could lay hold firmly this elusive feeling!
I don’t know why my face is wet, and sleep is not to be found…
what is the trigger for these invisible scars?
I feel so old and helpless… so worn out and useless…
choking on bitter tears that I don’t understand.
Is it loss? Anger? Bitterness? I cannot see the scars, but I feel the ache!
I scream silently for no one to hear, I refuse to be consoled, to greet the day.
I’m so alone in the night, so very small… and yet, I have swallowed the universe,
and stars have fallen in my eyes! The path lies before me, beaconing me,
and I walk on, always onward, to see what is over the next rise.
For somewhere, there is the question I seek, for all my answers.
And soon the sun will rise, and the river will reach the sea…
and I will be a glimmer in God’s eyes and I will remember to forget
these holes in my soul, these scars that hold me in!

Odyssey
“Oi,” said the wizard sadly,
with a tired, old look in his eye
“My as well tell thee
my secret be…humanity
I don’t know what to do
about the really BIG things
and, well… like see!”
(pulling up my wizardly gown
to show a leg with clearly
an ancient hole in it)
“Withered wizard, hey?”

“And broken is hard
no matter the matter
and it does, you know, to me
…ahhh broken is, broken be
what a tangled web we weave
but to deceive was never meant
bent wings and broken eyes
that see only dreams; not meant to fly

Fun is not fun
for any one, if left out you be
Friends, we may no’ see
but veracity it is; a circle of ‘em
riddles and rhymes all turn out fine
and the answers don’t have questions it seems

but sometimes the only stitch is time
the only bind, and outstretched hand, the balm.
and even fraudulent old wizards
are defunct in wisdom and action
not all the kings horses, nor his men
can put broken together, again.”

And clutching his magnificent cane
splendored about with agate, onyx and sapphires
he coughs weazily and rises woozily
and turns sadly away
Stopping to point at the beautiful shore
across the Sea, the Great City
her gates beautiful
“there! There it will be revealed in glory!
Him who holds the ways,
Oh Ancient of Days!”

I don't much like pain, it takes much away from living like I used to. I don't much like being bipolar, I must always be aware of triggers so I feel as if I don't have as much fun as I did when I didn't have to watch out for it.
But I will say that having had the car accident that brought on all of the pain and put the bipolar in the forefront of my life, these things made me a much better person. I am more aware of other people's pain and suffering and I care more about that. I see how very shallow and flippant I was before, my priorities were wrong, my anger misplaced, my idea of love was wrong.
The pain and other disorders from the accident were a high price to pay for a very well learned lesson, but worth the price on my end. I am not sure many people in my place would have learned the humility I did as gracefully as I did and come out not feeling sorry for themselves.
I have been given many more gifts in this life than any of the things that were taken away and the pain and confusion are a few of the small prices to pay for me love I thank the Lord daily for all of the wondrous blessings he has brought into my life and keeps bringing into my life. I live simply and ask for little "Blessed are they with no expectations; For they suffer no disappointments" Although I do expect the sun to rise every morning! thumbs up
Sorry for rambling, I just try to stay positive as I can dunno especially since I'm up at 3:15 am because I'm manic again roll eyes
