Sparks internal circuitry
Adrenaline pumps

there's a lump in the throat,
a pervasive dizziness, the skin
feels tingly and hot, clammy,
the stomach hurts, the back
aches, really aches, there's a
buzzing in the fingers, shaking,
the body is shaking, there really
is something wrong. Really?
Got stress?

called "The Cosmic Mind" and
is from the 1400's(saw it in
a recent exhibit at the Getty
called Migrations of the Mind)
and The Scream speaks for
itself and Edvard Munch.

yoga- the key to de-stress
nice haiku mom!
