Anxiety/Meditation 1. Anxiety. I sense existence where none should exist, vacant corridors billow—clamor for light Head full: breath shallow/quick/erratic; Creeping in the foreground, Sharp static crackles into pops Walls cave, clarity disintegrates. 2. Meditation. I sense windows where none could exist, spectral peripheries daze—beyond the pale
Eyes close: breath deep/slow/deliberate; Buzzing in the distance, Smooth streams flow into shapes
Walls fade, obscurity dissipates.
