Desperately clutching at non-existing anchors. I feel horribly vulnerable today. Exposed. For all weather systems to move through me, come at me, without the appropriate gear. I can’t seem to shake the feeling. There’s an uneasy texture on my skin and a constriction in my chest and throat. Is this what feeling feelings feel like?…
