Noble Spasms

As the body awakens from the lure of slumber, involuntary reactions send limbs akimbo, often with results hilarious and violent to rebuff once dormant instincts of preservation. A giggle escapes within the thrill of righteous struggle as armies of cells fill the whole with magnetically-charged gusts of lifting ether levitating souls onward.

You make the reader smile, John. Don't really know what causes those "involuntary reactions," but it's something we all experience. And I like the way you describe it as a "giggle" escaping. Very nice work! Love, carolyn
