Anxiety Attack

The monster that creeps in and Axiety sets.

Anxiety Attack

 

Half cocked with a glazed smile.

A Prozac induced nirvana.

I don’t feel that this is really me.

I wear the face, so happy the clown.

With no makeup on my face,

Inside I cry.

I sense the madness.

I crawl with fear.

Don’t know how I can make it through this day.

This predator a hairs length from my back.

It is getting ready to attack.

And I am still chemically happy.

Anxiety Attack!

 Reviews of "Anxiety Attack"
Reviewed on September 6, 2007
Good God, Kenneth, can I identify with this one. Storms bring out the baby in my 48 year old person: had such a bad one last year, had to go to hospital and get a shot of Valium. They gave me three pills: still have half of one left. *Try not to take unless it is rally bad--and this year...sheesh! Really bad* Excellent portrayal of the nightmare that is panic attack.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
