Sparks fly against the
current winds of
one lessening sanity.
A break, maybe a mistake
but this is my mind doddling
at stake.
For fucks sake!
Pull it together

I weakly reply to myself.
Fuck this,
No, Fuck you.
Fuck I don't know
what to do.
what to say
what it means
in disarray.
Go away...
Make it go away.
Please tell me what you think

You're not insane, you freaking ponce,
I've lost my direction more than once,
and worked my way through stress and pain,
to re-orient my fevered brow again.

all the great ones seem to be fated,
to some degree of mental disorder.
Now 'scuse me while I make a "run for the border".

... and that's why I think you may have really hit on something lots of us can identify with. The best comedy, it has been said (by George Carlin no less) is universal. Poetry is a little trickier. Most of us readers take away what we bring to a poem. No poem has to be universal to be good, but being so can help it be understood.
'Least that's what I think.
