Reading too much into things
Seeing things that are not there
Conversations in your mind the playhouse in your head.
Scenarios reeling
Gut reaction gathers traction
My worrying mind is a frail old man walking on hot coals
Did I remember to do something? Or did I forget?
Worry about anything, humans, animals, what's for tea? did I need a pee?
Building like a volcano about to erupt
Stepping back, telling myself to stop this clatter
Thinking why I am in a state, was it all that important, why does it matter?
To have a worrying mind take a deep breath of normality,
Calm the storm calm the insanity
