Anxiety is a frog
#1
Blowing bubble calls — ritual croaking balls.
Irridescent and beautiful as the moon’s crescent.
Each bubble falls, and they shake from withdrawals.
Failure is an unpleasant Valentine's Day present.

Trapped in a glass prison, thick skin will glisten.
Shame and guilt chains clatter as remorse rains.
A simple decision became thought fission.
Self-destructive games require therapy cranes.

In the depths of the bog, where evils slog —
Tadpoles danse macabre after first breath
An alligator hides under an enormous log
as the frog too tries to cheat death.

Crucified, exposed. In frozen throes, a rigor mortis pose.
Judgement glares raise hairs and cause cardiac tears.
Dove white cushions opposed by a bough of crows.
Chest pain shoots off, quick as tongue flares.

Wise from old age at this life stage.
Love and empathy spring far like hind legs.
No longer filled with rage. An amphibious sage
that guards their eggs till their life-span’s dregs.
