Boots and Cats

The seasons beat down upon you, stress and work and worry. Sweat and worry, your hands they shake, shake like spindly spinnerets. In your right hand you hold a pen, but it will not contact the paper; the convulsing is too strong. The words won't come out right. You're not alright, you're not a-ok.

You shake and shake and shake
shiver, teeth a-chatter

Close your eyes, try to push it all away, it still won't stop
Shake, shake, shake, shake
Tears they roll down from your eyes
