Nothing

Frozen like that moment when the grizzly sniffs your body in the fetal. Hoping that the fear just kills you instead. Don't move. At this point there is nothing you can do. Even running would only speed up the process. My mind racing through all the gears bypassing neutral. Why didn't I pay attention when she enrolled me in that yoga class? This is heck of a time to realize there are benefits to meditation. Please let there be a sound. Someone throw a lantern the other direction so that it draws his attention enough to give me time to get myself into more trouble. Bears sleeping in the woods waiting to be disturbed so they may eat. Should I be afraid or just reside in that peaceful place of my heart? Past the panic all I can find is memory of my friends and family. Perhaps worrying about it only makes it worse. Whatever will happen will happen. I am certainly not going to move and help the outcome be more quickly determined. For now I am the weakest, meekest baby in the forest. Wanting only to live another day.
