Public Speaking

Speaking to strangers
From a big, brightly-lit stage
Is not so scary.

Tourist

Believe it or not,
I walked through Ripley's today.
I saw crazy stuff.

Glutton

Gorging on ice cream.
Wow, I feel like throwing up.
My gut wants to burst.

Oh My Gosh

A cryptic message:
"Call us back about your tests."
Is my cancer back?

Yeah. This is inspired by the wonderful message I got on voice mail last Friday before the long Labor Day weekend. I called back this morning, and they still havent' returned my call. I am sure it must not be anything major or they would have already called, right? What the heck!!!!

Vegging Out

Vegging out: couch time.
Trivial television.
Snuggle with the dog.

Crash

So vulnerable:
SUVs crash into cars
Crushing steel and bones.

Stress and Depression

There is a monster
Living inside me . . . gnawing
On my heart and mind.
