As soon as the alarm explodes, the silence after seems spoiled. Quiet slips into one ear, through the tube in my skull, and out the other side - a precipitous flow of energy. Here. Gone. Drowned in the avalanche of thought - anxiety anger awe analysis all of it tumbles like a cage of numbered Bingo ***** clattering against the bars as my subconscious turns the handle. Stop Please S t o p. I t. NOW. I just want to be for just a moment. I just want to hear your breath falling slipping into one ear, through the vortex, and out the other side smoothing the roiling sea like a summer wind sending whispered shudders through my neurons silencing the cacophony as it flows and fades into quiet.

Antidote to Anxiety
As soon as the alarm explodes, the silence after seems spoiled. Quiet slips into one ear, through the tube in my skull, and out the other side - a precipitous flow of energy. Here. Gone. Drowned in the avalanche of thought - anxiety anger awe analysis all of it tumbles like a cage of numbered Bingo ***** clattering against the bars as my subconscious turns the handle. Stop Please S t o p. I t. NOW. I just want to be for just a moment. I just want to hear your breath falling slipping into one ear, through the vortex, and out the other side smoothing the roiling sea like a summer wind sending whispered shudders through my neurons silencing the cacophony as it flows and fades into quiet.
