Dec 2021
A wire has come loose
Connection faulty
Body fraught, skin hot
Electricity misfires
Muscles spasm
Energy bubbling
In my scapula
Mouth corner slipping
Arm numb
Palm sparking
Twisting and stretching
Satellite sobbing
Deep breathing
No relief
No change
Constant dissonance
Disturbance
Distance
Between realities
Skin deep and surface
No mental switch flip
I'm present, with it
And utterly frustrated
Body in disarray
Thoughts gathered neatly
It makes no sense
This physical betrayal
And the disconnect
Exhausting
Unrelenting
On edge
Over it all
Invisible lights blinking
Guiding path
To misery and beyond
Body anxious and brain unaffected, too hurt to be numb, too empty to feel
