• I am shouting inside - that is what I can say about it
    I am feeling now the feeling now
    I am feeling that sense of self as slipping away
    the feeling that myself is slipping away
    I am a name
    I am a name

    a young woman tells me that when she is hypomanic she writes excellent articles
    I am shouting inside the feeling now don’t tell me
    about how you function well on mania

    I am a name
    I am a name

    This feeling that myself is slipping away
    I am feeling now that feeling
    of slipping feeling

    I am feeling now that hand embedded in our sofa
    that brushes the small of my back when I get
    too loud
