I've read rhyming and punning and things like that can be symptoms of hypomania or mania but only if it gets totally out of hand. Don't be too quick to label yourself!

> A couple of days ago I composed a poem about Spam mail, which had the people I sent it to in hysterics (allegedly).

> Today I even had two composing themselves almost concurrently. I didn't write the first one down (I thought I should finish the washing up first) so it's almost gone, but I have a couple of verses for the second, and I guess it might finish itself later on. It's a kind of funny poem about myself.
