...renamed... ...Robin's Waiting Room I realized today, Contemplating Our loss of Robin the Great, That he lived his life As long as he could. I understaaaaand: the highs and the lowlowlow lows. News calls it substance addition. I have lived that. MY diagnosis was bipolar disorder. I am too near and dear to Robin Williams Was since I started the research that found NO primary sources. Substance abuse, depression, and extreme moods I have known. I felt his pain from Belushi's death. So as not to confuse His situation From the recent demise of a Carradine, He sit his wrists, With a pocketknife found. He didn't want to... It started small... But those uncontrollable deamons And the summoning cliff Have left us short ANOTHER LEGENDARY GENIUS. And Michael Jackson, I would bet my reputation some doc will someday realize he was bipolar And "Breaking News" will reverberate in endless echoes Of "what could have been, longer. I understaaaaaand. And only Yoko would know If John Lennon was indeed bipolar. But, I would never ask her, Even if I could. They were happy in soul and body and mind. We were always mean to Yoko. Still happens. Not right. Let her keep her John. May his soul rest in peace. Can't we learn? From what is right in front of our faces. I struggle, Like Robin and Michael... Thinking some nights I cannot live to face tomorrow. Suicide is NOT AN OPTION. "Whatever Gets You through the Night, It's all right, It's allright. |
