Hysterics

Hanging on till I feel the scratch in my throat
Inching up to be free my body. 
I feel the laughter asking to be released. 
Why is it stuck? 
It feels deceased. 

I walk outside. 
I feel the wind. 
I pet my dog.
He starts to grin. 
I think he might talk.
I start to laugh.
I can not stop.
Can he speak English?
He wants to...but I understand him anyway. 

I laughed so hard I had to run hone to pee. 
It was the best day I've had you'd see
