The continuous hum of the air conditioning unit
sings like a lullaby that feels familiar to my palette.
Caught in the bright arena of flashing lights,
a woman in a white coat pulls me to my feet.
She asks me questions in a robotic manner and
I am tempted to cycle my way towards a door
on the opposite side.
But i do not run,
     because there is no way out of this.
