Chill Virginia Salter Chill that’s what they say when anger or anxiety try to have their way. A derivative of being cool that not a soul shall know you’d rather be anywhere but standin’ in this horrid mire wonderin’ where to go. Yes standin’ here lips going black as oxygen speeds away threatening to steal your joy and carry you away. Away on fragile wings that break with little blow leavin’ you hanging from the eaves above the raging snow. Snow of life that’s filled with pain and stretches tear to tear making wishes necessity to carry you through fear © November 15, 2000 |

It’s hard to chill, When blood boils, But the coldness of spirit is difficult to defrost, Chilling never has been my problem, An interesting write. Gloom |

I have found myself in this postion trying to look cool and in control. When all I can think of is where to run and hide. Loved the way you put this together. |
