Of a Troubled Mind

[tectak]

The abstraction of this poem is confirmation of the yo-yo like journey that the mind has no control. To contribute this wretched honesty here is beyond brave. For those who read this and can relate to the unmistakable horror of a mood disorder, this poem needs no further explination.

Hi celestina,
For the benefit of those who come after us, and as a direct comment on the poem, it is not wise to assume that the writer IS the character in the poem.
My actual name is Ursula and I am a bipolar transvestite in remission from a bout of alcohol induced schizophrenic paranoia....and who can argue with that.
The point is , to get back on message, that veracity verse is never up for crit...so I make the assumption that this is NOT veracity verse and then can say with out regret that it is very old hat and nothing new. Perhaps if it rhymed it would have some poetic purpose.
Best to both and apologies if I have offended either...but that is how we both feel.
