No Brakes
When spinning
out of control,
how do you slow
your world down
before it explodes,
and the fabric
of space-time
unravels?
Leaving you
with no time
or space to think,
and no handle
to get a grip
on yourself
to save yourself
from the brink
of calamity?
Centrifugal forces
slinging you toward
your own insanity
at warp speeds –
velocities
as terminal
as sudden
decelerations
that can crush
your internals.
There are much
better ways to go,
but how do you slow
your world down
before your world
explodes?

Woven, it's a question asked just for the sake of asking. I use the written word to slow my world down when sh!t gets crazy. It helps me get a handle on things. Thanks for your feedback! I appreciate the read.
