Our Difference


Our difference; our art,
Our curse; our blessing,
A roller-coaster --
           Catch the thrill!
Schumann, Van Gogh and Poe,
           Perhaps Abe Lincoln?
Anathema to the bubble-person;
A life doomed to ride the edge.
Let lesser mortals, harried,
           Tend the business of the universe.
While we, the tortured souls,
           Attend the music of the cosmos.
