when panic or fear
electric scorch-marks
along the membrane
of my brain and heart...
stop, slow down, breathe
use all those inherited traits
from over the Irish Sea
denial, distraction,
deliberate avoidance...
mix with science, age old
mindful practices, kindness
love...
oh love, blessed is this day
