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