In The Wake After

Late afternoon
feeling the gloom
I am in the in between stages
of depression and
anxiety
do not want society to think this is about
keeping my sobriety
This is a matter of privacy
quietly
silently
I roll with the swings
I roll with the cycle
and the stifileing nuse around my neck.
this just lasts for awhile.
patiently waiting for a break
and recover from the of trauma of my PTSD wake.
