Mania
Earthquakes no longer feel foreign to my body
My mind is racing and my ego is gaudy
Hurricanes no longer cause shivers down my spine
Everything they are is everything that is mine
Tornadoes no longer can blow my life over
My body stands fast as the grass and the clover
Thunder no longer scares me at night
The sounds from above are the sounds in my mind
Forever no longer sounds like sure death
It’s not enough time to use up all my breath
This emotion no longer holds all the power
For I know that it may be gone in an hour
