Hi, rayheinrich- This poem spoken rolls nicely. It's dripping with something, not frustration or sarcasm...I'm not quite sure, maybe disappointment? I think there is much room for misinterpretation. I see it as a very thoughtful reminder, too. The very best wishes to you.

Thanks. Not misinterpretation, but interpretation. It's designed to encourage you to wander your mind.
... manic joy occasioned by the beauty of the world and the despair of a life lost...
That's OK, I'm in pathetic need of attention. It's either be nice to you guys or find
someone twice my size, piss them off, and masochistically enjoy my suffering.
Nice is better as I don't have to get out of this chair thereby upsetting the cat sleeping in my lap.
"somehow back to the manic side?"
more like waiting/begging/bragging for/about the next manic episode
