I'm sent to see
Dr. Rainth, the psychiatrist
He lets me keep the door
Open as he explains what
Is happening to me
I thought I was dying
But that would be
Too easy, this
Crazed heart beating
Sweating shaking
Stomach hurting
Has a name
Anxiety attack
And he will add
Little white pills
To my regimen
Until I've learned
More coping skills
How long will that take?
I ask
How long have you got?
He laughs
Time, everything takes
Time.
