Bipolar Blues

Bipolar Blues: A Collection of Poems invites the reader along on a
journey inside the world of manic depression. Structured in various
poetic forms, the poems are full of raw emotion with the intention of
sharing the experiences of living with the stigmatic mental health
disorder while trying not to be sulky or morose in the descriptions of
its symptoms or their effects. It is hoped this collection of poems
reaches even one young, or not-so-young, person who needs to know there
are others who share and understand their struggles and that there is
hope for a brighter day. This is an emotional journey and one to be
learned from! The Upside Down and Sideways collection (poems composed
spanning four decades) and the Garage Poems collection (works composed
in the poet's garage) cover several topics and contain mostly short
free-verse pieces. This first-released collection of poems is completed
with several stand-alone works of various forms and on many topics along
with special selections composed for family members, friends and loved
pets.
