Overwhelmed in Manhattan

Have you ever been so completely inundated by MINUTIA, OBLIGATION and veritable "to-do LISTS," that you found yourself unable to breathe? That you literally BECAME PARALYZED by the ''over-stimulation'' of it all?
Have you ever worked VERY VERY hard for something and had it ultimately come to FRUITION, only then to be FLABBERGASTED by its existence?
Can you relate to what I''m saying ?
Have you wanted to climb back under the covers, NOT FROM EXHAUSTION mind you, but from the "sack of BRICKS and MORTAR"
that you feel has been hoisted upon your LONE, TINY SHOULDERS?
Its a conundrum to watch that which you''ve YEARNED FOR manifest, and to then be unable to "OWN IT."
Oyy.
Just sayin''.
