HYPERVENTILATING


HYPERVENTILATING

cant catch my breath
in panic mode
this manic symptom
disturbs my dreams
and has me in a cold sweat
I don;t know who
is in control
but it sure as hell ain't me
wakened by a sudden
siren starting just under my window
with flight or fight
on my mind
resorting to the calming effect
of poetry
to distract my mind
from feelings
of the crazy kind
finally catching my breath
and stop hyperventilating

and startled yet again,
somebodies fucking car alarm

just went off
