Anxiety is Not Your Natural State – Written Monday 5th July 2021 (Aged 46)

Anxiety is Not Your Natural State

anxiety
is not your natural state
life has placed you in an enclosure
you just need the key for the gate
timekeeping is so important
there is always a watch on the arm of fate

anxiety
is not your natural state
it is a lease
a place with an expensive rate
you just need to save up
and clean off the slate

i know it is not straight forward
and there is a tendency
to get stuck in the twists and turns
but anxiety
It’s not your natural state
It is just the cups and saucers
which are most likely to break




James Garratt – Monday 5th July 2021
