Twist and Shake .

When you are feeling blue and stressed why do your senses think it's a good time to party all day and might.
You can't sleep as your mind is faster than your broadband it's on speed at 301 terabits per second.
But your body is on the opposite side of the coin your legs and feet you would swear on the holy bible in court that they have been filled with cement. The only saving grace is that they haven't set yet.
Why has your hearing morphed into that of a bat at 120dB its a constant hammering of a pneumatic drill that makes you jump out of your skin.

Your eyes have gone from twenty twenty vision to flying on the wings of a dragonfly and you're processing 300 frames per second and thirty different colours that you have continual blinking and an uncontrollable twitch quite frankly your appearance is freakily unnerving. Inside your stomach is dancing to the twist and shake it's ramped up on the gas and it's affecting the ozone layer and being distinctively rich in its acrid aroma. And all you want is a bit of love and peace and to find a hippy commune on the other side of the street as you desperately need to sleep.
