#OctPoWriMo (Day 6 of 31) Pacing the Floor – Don’t Forget to Breathe

DAY 6

Prompt – Pacing the Floor

* * *

img_260627 steps, round way trip, 54,

with a detour, add 42,

maybe more.

Count them, tap them

with fingertips

and soundless word,

lip sync pantomime,

don’t let the panic free.

   12, 13, 14, 15,

      don’t forget to breathe.

   Go round and round,

again,

   once more.

Look up.

   Everything is fine.

Full stop.

     Everything is fine,

like it was before.
