Stress
Stress
The real chronic.
She lists stress
as the primary cause
of her fatigue,
and also for
myriad other ailments
betraying her bright smile
while also dampening
her enthusiasm for
anything other
than a day's,
an hour's,
or a moment's respite
from the weighty demands
of her life.
Reality is the leading cause of stress
among those in touch with it.
~ Lily Tomlin
