The Anxiety Arc: Parts 4-6

a comic and poem about writing anxiety

Part 4

Part 5

Part 6

Nothing Spinning Everything Spinning Nothing Spinning...

An invisible thread

only I can see

one sharp little tug

like an axe to a tree.

-

The canvas unravels

in the blink of an eye

I’ll hold it together

I won’t say goodbye.

-

But the thread itches

like a tickling tick

sucking my energy

unwinding a bit.

-

I’ll spool it and wind it

weave it and breathe

how does one little fiber

become such a tease?

--------------------------------------

Thank you for reading my comic and poem; I really appreciate it. This is parts 4-6 in the Anxiety Arc. More to come soon!
