Amygdala

Tense eyes focus straight Lights flash by, movement make. Dazzle, horn, sounds cracks concentration Adrenalin surge, dark anticipation Expectation turns the anxiety key Why the hell is he doing this to me? Drive faster, risk take, fool make! Anger overtakes, rational thought dissipates Tense hold on steering wheel Expletives fly, braced to kill Car overtakes with reckless intent Screaming men, enemies make Cuts in front, hit the brake Come to a halt, anger takes Out of car shouting, shoving, pushing See red. Just a second it takes Amygdala in brain overtakes Murderer, rRoAaGdE makes.
