So much to cope with;

and how to cope with it all? -

Split-second videos play one after the other, on and on in my head

of all the beautiful-bad methods I could use;

I'm lost in these images; I'm lost in the never-ending problems and solutions and problems...

I have a male partner, a hospitalised sister, two difficult essays, and an unstable mind;

I have a resurfaced pill-habit, a cold, sadness and anxiety, and premenstrual syndrome

which is driving me fucking CRAZY!!!

Like this a lot - Much of it makes grim reading and caused me a moment's guilt when I laughed despite myself at the last line -  shattering the despair of the previous lines, out comes this sudden shell-burst of anger - as 'grrr-like' as you can get. It reminded me of what Arnold Schwarzeneggar says to the young boy he's protecting in Terminator 3 I think, about how 'Anger is better than despair'. Anyway...was stirred by a line mid-way through the poem too: 'I have a ... an unstable mind;'. There's something striking about the '...two difficult essays,' bit in there! I look forward to reading more.
