Illogical

What am I to do?
When one plus one
Does not equal two.

Here lately things aren't
Making any sense.

The moon rises at dawn,
And now my nights are
Much too bright it's hard
To sleep. Hard to think.

The air I breathe is
Solid as a rock. The
Ground I walk on first
Sticks to my feet then
Becomes as bouncy as a
Trampoline. Makes it
Difficult to get anywhere.

Is my grasp on reality
Becoming weaker by the
Second? Seems like time
Speeds up only to slow down.
I'm smelling sounds and
Hearing sights. All my senses
Are in limbo. My touch is
Bipolar first numb then
Over sensitive. I never
Know how I'll react.

I seek to be sad.
Find happiness in anger,
And I'm often in a
Rage when I should be
Calm. It's becoming
Tougher and tougher
To keep a clear head.

Why am I so damn
Illogical?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Some more of my old stuff...though this poem is about how fucked up I am for some reason it remains one of my favorites. I'd like to think I'm doing better now, but who knows?

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
