How I am Feeling

I saw it a few days ago , a little puff of grey
Bubbling away, just above my head
So, I packed my bag and left the city
In hope it does not dare follow, 
I looked at it and “good bye” , I  said !

In nature I was soaking , relieved that it did not catch me, 
when I saw it again ...Puffing his way up my back,
In desperation, I jumped into the cold pool,
Hoping  it just freezes and crack !

Enroute home  into the city crowd, the little speck of grey followed me ,
Dark  words and deeds were gaining momentum across here and there
Blowing  in a storm of  dark clouds everywhere, 

Then,  Sun, Breeze, Music , Prayers or Rhythm of Grace,
Could not do anything to stop this grain,
That started to grow big and bigger, dark and blaec
Now I walk everywhere with this heavy blob of black on my head
Just waiting for it to burst in some holy fatal universe wake !
