Dread Affliction
DREAD AFFLICTION
Overthinking
One terrible affliction
Thinking gets enmeshed
Goes blind lost in emotion
Pure intuition cut adrift
Time to let go
Return
Remain
Release
Relax
Sit still as silence
Thirty minutes and reboot
Duly calm readdress the issue
If caterwauling chitcat reinvades
Stop – take ten deep breaths
Ten – one after the other
Give yourself a hug or two
Tap your baton a time or two
For you are conductor here
Call the players to order
And issue your order
Da capo – Da capo
Return
Remain
Release
Relax
And et cetera
Taking The Plunge
TAKING THE PLUNGE
Ask not for whom the bell
Twice burned and counting
So why should you trust me
Or I you, dear, come to that
I know trust (trussed) already
Tied up in (k)nots and musts
You get my drift – no sure line
Pulled off course of course and
Aimed straight at some maelstrom
While tolls impulsive, irresponsible
Irredeemable, irresistible this knell
This undisclosed pocked magnet
Drives our two compasses haywire
The alarm bell rings seconds away
Sucked in under the sucker punch
Say goodnight, Grace, say goodnight
Unlucky Escape (Yuanfen)
UNLUCKY ESCAPE (YUANFEN)
Something about her …
(Sucker for sweet and sour)
Ordered a Chinese
“Have fate without destiny”
Warns fortune cookie … Too late
