EXCUSES TO DIE
Anxiety is a living nightmare.
My ever present companion,
Always quick to reassure me
That I'm doing more than not enough.
So I sun tan in my guilt rays
And bask in the steam
Of my doused inadequacy stones,
Embracing full on the choking sensation
Of this sweat lodge named panic.
I really paid to do this?
Worry is my pre-req
For grad courses in "Doing Nothing
With My Life",
Did I mention my dissertation is on
"Personal Paralyzation due to incorrect self-indulgence"?
I bet my parents would still be upset
If I dropped out.

Schools Out
ReplyDeleteAs far as I'm concerned
it was never in
Living life
is the only prerequisite
in fulfilment of distant dreams
Worry, anxiety are tight friends
Ones you can depend on
to never leave
Embrace them as you are
and they will take
there seats
In your class
Teach them
What is most important
to you
They will follow
With questioning
Never ceasing
Headmaster you are
School is out

As for me...
My hope
Is to
be a traveller
with you.
Creating & being a part
of love, humor...
maybe a little
poetry
Taking in Mtn top sunsets
Having fun
Living life
School is out
Apologies for a most embarrassing typo
