MANIA POEM #1, James Moran

Mania Poem #1
by James Moran

You’re running through the fire,
burning in the fire.

Everything about you, around you
burns – wild.

You have all the water 
you could ever need, 
enough to put out the flames.

But you drink the water, 
keep drinking,
even though you’re not thirsty.

You believe that you’re the fire.
