Overthinking

Imaginations

Visual projections originating
From my overly stimulated cortex
Converge into
Countless calculations
In the space of seconds

Brooding

I sit on my eggs
Of projections and predictions,
Fervid diligence,
Irrational madness,
"crack", they hatch.

Fear

My body shakes and quakes.
Proceeding from cracked shells
Are eerie interpretations.
"When did I start seeing the future?"
"Now, I guess"

Headache

Overworked organs do protest,
Cerebral pains manifest.
"Can the day get any worse?"
I reach for the bloody pills.

Truth

The truth comes out,
I am way off the mark.
Feelings of relief and disgust,
"I need a break!"
