Barometric Pressure

Barometric Pressure

As the pressure drops
Like a stone from a tower
My health flops
By each minute and hour

I lock up
Slowing down
Drinking my death cup
I flounder and drown

Unable to function
Unable to comprehend
Unable to function
Unable to live

A robotic zombie
Floating along
Unstable and wonky
This is my song

A song of lostness
A song of worthlessness
A song of smallness
A song of nervousness

How long will this go on
This morbid journey
Until my symptoms are gone
And I am back in lifes tourney

Functioning normal
Thinking and talking
Not feeling abnormal
Functioning and walking

Living a normal life
A life of normality
No continuous strife
Just a life of vitality

Once again
I am patient and await
The barometric train
To steam forward reducing its weight

Arriving at my station
Which it always does
Creating a new period of gestation
And my symptoms fizz

I walk and wake from my stupor
As the train passes
Slowly reducing my stooper
Not slow and thick as molasses

But normal and bright
Clear headed
My symptoms in flight
Completely broken and shredded

Back in the living
Where life is good
Another season of thanksgiving
Living as I should
