When forgetting to breathe...
the heart drums a Soca tempo
as lips move to speak
the tongue twisting twirls words
as if speaking in tongues.
The rhythm rising,
impairing my ears.
I panic
I am frozen.
Remember to breathe.
Inhale.1...2...3...4....5...6...7...
Exhale. 8...9...10
Did you make it 7?
I am on 4...
