'If I did not laugh, I should die, '
Abe Lincoln was said to have said
To his Cabinet as to why
An amusing book he had read
Aloud to make the others laugh,
Which he did, but others did not.
Lincoln turned to his other half.
His raged scorn, the Cabinet got.
Many noted Lincoln's two sides,
One of light and the other dark.
With hardly any hint divides,
Lincoln would trounce with contrast stark.
Honest Abe - bipolar? Maybe!
But not for textbook history.

I would like to translate this poem
Not only Abe, many other celebrities, scientists, politicians and others get affected by this bipolar syndrome. Those who go through this, can feel the pain in the light!
