Stimming

It is when you REALLY HAVE to CONCENTRATE,
Or you have a sudden BURST of stimulation,
Or when you are VERY STRESSED,
That you find yourself unconsciously,
Or more likely,
Someone else discovers,
That you are...

STIMMING!
(this word requires capitals and an exclamation mark!)
Because,
It can be wholly EMBARRASSING.
Especially if it involves WEIRD face pulling.

Nose twitching, thrumming fingers,
Rapid tongue movements, hands flapping
Or any STRANGE articulation,
Of almost any part of body part,
That articulates.

Once I was chastised for conducting, (by our choirmaster,)
And I too embarrassed to explain,
That I was lost in the rapture of the music.
