Panic Buttons

Panic Buttons guess what? there is no button It comes out of the thin air It doesn't matter "where" I have studied the chemical reactions that happen when the panic button is on run run away....."to where, where"? and you're not thinking you are panicking breathe damn it Breathe and the more you say it to the overexcited brain the air is just gone. what's wrong with you? Pull yourself together shoot, did you try "yoga". ugh. Little do they know that I do know! the whole body systems reacts to danger "real" or not. Say you live in a world where you never feel safe Say your nights were about "Should I feel afraid tonight" Say your life has always been this scenario. Panic. Don't wonder "why"? Don't ask me "why"? It is a lifetime story. Tell me? Do you have the time? Barbara Suen 4/13/16
