Visiting Threats

A common routine.

A threat

An insouciant warning

creeping through my veins

setting my heart thudding,

my ears ringing.

Nausea at the pit of my stomach

swirling its way up

a glut of human sediments

forces against my throat.

Let it go. LET IT GO!

But I gulp it down

It tremors down furiously

slipping into my heart this time

And I get back to living.

Huh, very interesting. I like it. Nice descriptions and imagery. You create a sense of panic it seems through the experience... very interesting..
Nice write. It kinda reminds me of like having a premonition or some kind of psychic touch... to something.

Lovely piece on fear. I love the way the story goes. And I love the ending to it. Every man should learn to do that.

A fear attack can happen at anytime. I believe in my dreams I may have them. In real life I have control I believe. I like the description and feelings of this poem.
