process (20170619)

Posted on June 19, 2017June 19, 2017 by crow

keep your eyes open
forget to breathe
focus on the tingling
in your fingertips
that fluttering
in your chest
imagine the worst possible
outcome
start biting your nails again
take up smoking
take up drinking
ruminate over your regrets
stare at the oncoming traffic
count your pills
learn to hate
learn to judge
stop moving
stop

Hmm… I prefer the ‘positivity in spite of all evidence to the contrary’ approach.

    Shame. Seems we are embodiment of the ‘Ying’ and ‘Yang’!
