PANIC

No, no, no, no, no!

I, no.

Don’t know!

Know what?

Know who, know why.

No, why?

Who, who, who, who?

I now

don’t know.

Know what?

No! What am I?

Up, up, up, up, up

I flow

to when,

to where,

to how I die.

I lie

alive yet still

I cry

I don’t

know how

nor why am I.

Run, run, run, run, run

to go

through hook

and eye;

requalify.

Know why?

You, you, you, you

I know!

So here

I am.

Now, who am I?
