I see the bright lights

Strange faces

Strange feeling inside my skin

Cold steel

Pressed against me

Cold stare

From this old white man

Feel the walls

Closing in

Now my vision is tunneling

Feel my insides fall to the floor

This white knuckle mentality

Is going to lead me home

“Please sir, take your seat.

Take a deep breath too”

I can’t fucking breathe

With all these people here

Staring at me

They’ve got me pinned down

Latex hand around my mouth

Feel the rage

Rush through my veins

White coat syndrome

My heart beats through my chest

“Don’t worry, this will be over soon”

I can’t move

I can’t scream

I can’t kick them off of me
