mystic visions appear–sent by angels above
cryptic circles of light–harbingers of love
eyes wide open–eyes wide shut
lies unspoken for love and lust
hieroglyphics branded hard–deeply rooted in my brain
i may be manic–but i’m far from insane
every shadow in the dark–shimmers incandescent like a breath
new prophecies come to mind–new futures coalesce
the neurodiversity of our species is a sacred gift
pathologized so often–derided and dismissed
i wrote about manic zen–and i am feeling it now
readying for the safety of a psych ward–hoping to hone my powers
eyes wide open–eyes wide shut
the cosmos burns bright–blessing our minds with stardust
