I wake up and there is no spring in my step
Where is my smile
Where is my pep
Nothing seems worthwhile
Why this feeling of doom
The world seems so gloom
There is a dragon inside of me
Angry and breathing fire
Nothing in my mind seems to agree
This situation feels dire
I am enraged
I am sad
I am crazed
I can’t stand myself
Crying for no reason
Anything sets me off
I am not myself
Then, in an instant, I realize
And what a blessing it is to know
No more need to analyze
This soon will flow
This is just passing
And not long lasting
No need to despair
Just grin and bear
So welcome my friend
But don’t get too comfortable
Don’t even try to blend
This relationship has an end!
In another day or two or three
I will be free!!

I think PMS is eternal, even if your 50s. Women are sensitive, fragile creatures and we go through emotional ups and downs. It’s great that you have the gift you have to transform your feelings onto the page.

Of course that’s what it is. Not everyone can do it, they may like to, but you get up and compose on a pretty regular basis from what I can see. Celebrate that.

What?? Skip the REPTILES? Oh, my little Miss, my job in life is to get the squeamishness out of people when it comes to reptilians and arachnids. You’ll find only joy here when it comes to those blessed animals. You wont’ WANT to miss it! Like beautiful Calissa, here.

Oh, yes, I quite like this depiction of the malicious monthly beast that encroaches upon our bodies. Fantastic! I especially enjoyed you telling said beast to not get very comfortable. This too shall pass!
