My Wandering Mind

The random thoughts of a bipolar mind going through a bipolar shift.


Poem Artwork

My father woke me up one morning
At 3am
He said, "I've never shot a tiger
And had to tell someone."

The very next morning at 3am
My neighbour knocked on my door.
He was naked and asked,
"Do you know where there's a good tailor?"


What would a small child rather hear?
A boring truth or an exciting lie?
Where does the darkness go
When you switch the light on?

I carry 3 pens in my jacket pocket.
People ask me if it's excessive.
I agree with them.
"I'd like to buy 3 excessive pens please."

I get ignored by my own echo.
What's around the corner except more corners?
My sister has an extra-century perception.
Ask a stupid question, you'll get a stupid answer.

I'm not particularly literate.
I come from a working class family.
Perhaps I should get to the bottom of this.
It appears that I have got to the bottom of this.

sweet, you describe it real well here Bob, life can be a multi piece jig saw puzzle flying strewn in mid air, for someone who suffers from Bipolar. I know a man who has six kids and four of them are bipolar, he is the most patient man I ever met. A school teacher by trade, when I showed up at his door with a broken violin, he helped me fix it and gave me a crash lesson on how to use it. I am in awe of him, xo

There would be a fine thing Ed. Talking walls. Knowing my luck if the walls started talking an all in brawl would ensue....with me running straight out the talking door.

I live alone and talk to the apartments walls, but when they start talking back I hope I can tell their story as well as you tell yours, -e-

As I laughed my way through, I believe you've created some new clichés. For that alone, you can go down in the cliché Hall of Fame.
