Fear Factor.

My head is buzzing, my hands are shaking,

Do you hear the noise my heart is making?

I bite my nails, I tap my feet,

Should I fight it or just retreat?

My mouth is dry, my legs are jelly,

I have a sick feeling deep in my belly.

Can I do it? I don't know.

I hope my terror doesn't show.

I've gotta keep my cool and try to be brave,

though nervous energy hits me in waves.

At the very least I'll be alert.

Anyway, what does a little fear hurt?

My 3rd poem. Yay, I did it before I had to leave! This is just a little exaggeration of how anxious I am about driving all by myself to somewhere I've never been. It would be so much better if I just had someone with me. Like, to read the directions while I'm driving...

But this is just the adventure that will send my 2009 off with a bang! Happy New Year everybody, and see you next year! In fact, see you in the next decade! Haha. ^_^ I'll think of some resolutions to put up tomorrow while I'm baby-sitting. (Maybe I'll try to make them part of poem #4...)
