It’s catching, contagious, highly transferrable.
A ripple becomes
a wave becomes
a tsunami and crashes all around, swallowing you up and shaking you silly.
It may start small,
a tickle,
a catch in the throat.
But it’ll burrow deep and begin to grow.
Swelling,
rising as it fills the belly,
the lungs.
Bubbling up and out it’ll make you cry from the corner of your crinkled eyes.

Tonight we watched a Louis CK stand up performance and I was in tears on the floor. The right equation of good jokes, and a quick audience can keep me laughing until I clutching my side and gasping for air. And it feels so good. It's cathartic and exhausting, like a good hard cry.
