I spend a lot of my time beating back anxiety
fending off dark intruders
ANGER FEAR ANXIETY DEPRESSION.
I battle these four horsemen of my oft-deferred apocalypse
gain high ground see things are not so dire after all
I see a vast field dotted with few adversaries.
Still I am outnumbered
this war continues with endless skirmishes
these enemies cannot be slain but they can be vanquished.
