I walk, I stretch, I move hair out of my face they all stare I trip, I stutter, I say something earnest they all laugh I look, I spy, I watch Enveloped they are with their own lives the worst of it all is that all these queer stares, the conceited laughter, the daunting suspicion this throbbing anxiety making my hands shake, like a ****** apparition Is all me it's in my head I wish I weren't so self conscious I wish I had better control I wish the poison completely calmed it As to apprehend my torn up soul
