Synapses in unison
Asking loud, vexing questions
Screaming as one
For my undivided attention
Sleep, let me sleep
My unheeded direction
Soaked in the aftermath
Of a challenging session
Sugared blood, adrenaline
And frustration
Cells shrivelled
For want of hydration
Caught twixt distress
And elation
Hanging in the aftermath
And disturbed agitation
The murmur of sinew
In stretch and contraction
Driven by excessive
Cause and reaction
Finds body and soul overawed
By distraction
Battered by the aftermath
Of this conflicted attraction
