POLAR
I feel euphoric when I am North
Everything is easy and my brilliance comes forth
I know I will accomplish anything with ease,
Nothing can stop me, and that is the tease.
My aura of confidencs attracts many people to me,
At first,
Then something changes, and my actions become frenzied,
My brilliance is cursed.
Those same people cease to cheer,
I become too easily excitable,
Their unease turns to fear,
any opposition I meet I deem to be fighable.
Then comes the change,
Sometimes slowly,
My mind turns south,
my thouughts turn lowly,
My high minded tasks are only halfway done
My thoughts turn dark, I just want to run.
Or lay in bed.
Sometimes I wish I were dead.
What keeps me going while in this state,
Is the knowledge,
That returning back North is my certain fate.

You know that some scientists speculate that the ice age was caused by a great pole shift. That the earth actually shifted on its own axis. Just think if that happened in our lifetime. Our brains might even out and tall the normal people would go crazy! Ha Ha, the meek shall inhereit the earth!
Beautiful poem. Dont stop writing.
