Worry Knot Chokes Out the Living Daylights
Worry knot chokes out the living daylights
I know from personal experience
the foolhardiness of
courting, flirting, honeymooning...
worse case scenario,
particularly when just a wee lad,
yours truly internalized
unfamiliar bodily aches and pains
as a death sentence,
slept with one eye opened
against nightmarish fiends birthed
courtesy overactive imagination
and subsequently did buzzfeed
crowded house of mind
ranking as capital one pet peeve
that festered and kickstarted

Humus Me My Vegetated Chokes Ingest
Humus me? My vegetated chokes ingest!
(jokes all in jest)
Hard to believe, I orange in a lee

Chokes
She looks at her untold story,
She chokes on her deepest feeling.
She stares at the ladies lost face,
