There it is again…creeping under my skin, right below the surface, just itching to get out.
Ignore it. It will go away.
Crawling. Scratching. Squirming. Setting my skin on fire.
Ignore it. Just ignore it.
Deep breaths. Focus. Breathe.
There is goes again. Boiling. Scalding. It needs to get out.
Moving into my gut. It pools there.
A hot simmering now -
It boils up, rises into my throat.
Force it down, swallow it.
Don’t let it out.
No. No. No. No.
Here is comes again –
Like a runaway train crashing against the walls of a tunnel like a pinball-
There’s no stopping it now.
Nothing to do but let it happen, watching in slow motion,
Nothing to do now but wait for the body count -
BANG BANG BANG. CLASH, CLANG, BOOM!
AHHHHHH—HHHHHH----HHHHHHH!!!
