Given how much he was startled
A sharp intake of breath was to be expected
So imagine their astonishment when that intake kept going and going…
Perhaps you shouldn’t surprise Kirby.

“So, what is going on over there?”
“Perhaps it’s none of your business.”
“Yes, but I really want to see!”
So many troubles were raining down on her
That she was soon soaked to her soul with all the consequences
Rising depression threatened to drown her as she stood there
Unless she figured out how to swim through the morass of her life
Giving up was always an option
Going under and never resurfacing again
Life would just go on for those around her
Except she knew that was a lie, so she began to tread water and searched for the safety of shore
Now what are we going to do?
I liked counting to ten
Now we can’t without bringing up the senseless cannibalistic murder
Evoking the horrific time when seven ate,,,
So you feel like you’re going to go under
Icy hands of doubt and self-loathing pulling you down into your personal abyss
No way should you just accept what is happening
Keep on treading water and keep looking for the shore. You’ve got this!
