\n<\/p>\n
In a state of madness<\/p>\n
overtaken<\/p>\n
by the chaos\u00a0<\/p>\n
of this life<\/p>\n
having failed<\/p>\n
just a little\u00a0<\/p>\n
at meditation\u00a0<\/p>\n
panic finds me<\/p>\n
again<\/p>\n
bile rises<\/p>\n
to the back of my throat<\/p>\n
for a moment\u00a0<\/p>\n
I am certain\u00a0<\/p>\n
this is the end<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
I look around<\/p>\n
to the wind<\/p>\n
stirring against my face\u00a0<\/p>\n
to a small wooden window<\/p>\n
standing open<\/p>\n
in the corner<\/p>\n
I edge closer<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Through it<\/p>\n
the green<\/p>\n
the vast blue<\/p>\n
the red fence\u00a0<\/p>\n
the white cat<\/p>\n
the fresh orange<\/p>\n
resting on the ground<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
One thing<\/p>\n
then another<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
I reach\u00a0<\/p>\n
like I always knew how to<\/p>\n
like I’ve done this<\/p>\n
a thousand times before<\/p>\n
into a calm<\/p>\n
I never knew existed\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everything remains\u00a0<\/p>\n
the green<\/p>\n
the blue<\/p>\n
the red\u00a0<\/p>\n
the white<\/p>\n
the orange<\/p>\n
and somehow<\/p>\n
so do I.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
