My thoughts are long spindled strands of feelings that grew over time.

A megaphone is incomparable to my panic.
My words slur and scream out a force so manic.
My body kicks into survival mode.

There’s a murmuring in the distance,
Followed by the clatter of human existence.

As her eyes are pulled into the sight of a forgotten reed.
The music of the buds
Pressed into her ears are
unclear as she breathes
In the scents of her past,
Childhood years.
