Ease is a Pair of Stockings Torn Away


anxiety encumbers the soul   
melancholy+depression—colour of coal
     life is tiring
coal in this regard is the antonym of ease
the way
a tight pair of black stockings    [wraps]
     chubby thighs
tearing the pair of s/t/o/c/k/i/n/g/s away  
                              is the synonym of ease
liberation+euphoria—colour of light
