Serenity

Jumbled
Scrabble tiles in a leather bag
My stomach churns my lunch to butter
Electric fires 
Scorching raw nerves
To many sensations
Neurons misfiring
Illogical emotions bleeding through
Seeping from my eyes
In saltwater waves
Brushed aside by a single fingertip
Every atom strains
Laser focused
Engines screaming 
Pumping clouds of steam
Into starry eyed skies
A second carress
Palm to cheek
Screeching breaks
Melting rubber 
Wafting into nostrils
Consciousness catapulted
Into the serenity of my submission
