Today, I have a week off.
From work,
from my home,
from schedules.

yet, I am struggling

to alleviate
worries


I am addicted to worry.
Thoughts that sprint,
One become a thousand.
uncontrolled,
unhinged
concepts that need
no further consideration

one week to undo forty years
of wild rumination;
I need three years
to hunt these notions
and cage them.

{This is anxiety}
