Struggling for Sanity

I am struggling; I climb and then I fall.
Lofty to lowly, my thoughts encompass all.
On borderline Schizophrenia, I tread,
I've multiple perceptions within ONE head!
My highest self sees my lower thoughts with disdain.
There are opposing viewpoints within ONE brain!
Suppressing those intruders bringing ill-ease;
Those negative thoughts that are spreading disease.
Trying to fight off thoughts that are plaguing my brain;
Ego-based invaders that make me insane.
I'm organizing my 'many-a-viewing'
and sorting through heads of 'truth-misconstruing'.
It's a 'refurbished mind' that I'm trying to invent.
'A more expansive caring' is my intent.
Attempting to 'brainwash' my 'brain-dirtied' mind;
Cleansing 'conditioning' learned from humankind.
Living my 'highest of heads' seems the best way
to approach the dawn of each brand new day.
Keep in mind that I'm 'normal' just like you.
We all have psychiatric work to do!
