Snarkiness surrounds.
Anxiety awaits.
Grumpiness grasps.
Surliness suffocates.
Attitude attacks.
Breathe. Breathe again.
In, one. two, three, four, hold.
Out, one, two, three four, hold.
Pray. Visualize. Go to my happy place.
Music. Deep breaths.
Fury, fled.
Anger, alleviated.
Center, back in place.
Cheer, restored.
For now, at least.
I'll take peace in spurts,
if that's the only way it
knows to come.
