Generalized Anxiety Disorder
By Amberleigh Curry
How can a body be so static and a mind so erratic?
Clearly, something’s gone wrong up in the attic
Don’t remember how to relax, cortisol crack addict
How are you supposed to keep doing it?
Just do it, even if you have to panic attack it
Pulling up to the agitation station, step to the platform and perform
Meanwhile, my mind’s running away with me, thoughts storm
Life’s testin’, heart arrestin’, I’m just doin’ my best and
Taking uppers by day, downers by night, only way to sleep half-right
Pharmaceutical equilibrium just to push through the delirium
This adrenal fight-or-flight is so wearisome
But I keep moving for the delusion of Elysium
