Unwell

Adrenaline is overclocked
A burnt-out incandescent bulb
Simmering in the socket
Fire hazard waiting to happen
Puking from the anxiety
Incessant tremors

Do you traipse
Through the tripwires in your head
Is it a mire of steel cobwebs
Impassible
Immovable

Bile burnt sinuses suppressing a sob
Fall asleep til the burning stops
The itch goes deeper than skin
Hydroxizine antihistamine
Soothes the sensation
Useful medication
