Sinking

The music is too loud

on all 15 different stations

and I am trapped

with no space to move,

no air to breathe

but my arms and legs

are bound and I am stuck

under the pressing weight

on my chest

choking on the

lump in my throat -

I'm sweating and my body itches

because my clothes are getting tighter

and the music's getting louder and

HEY! DON’T' FORGET!

I'm trying

trying to remember

with my head under this bag

I cannot breathe

I cannot see

I'm screaming out

can no one hear?

I'm sinking

they're laughing

and the music

is LOUDER.

Laughing.

and I'm drowning.
