Do You Know Me
Its an antiseptic room filled with white linoleum
stranger still, the small cot that cradles her
is being transported , she is not at home;
"Lie still" the voices say, but her mind races

HILL ,
Where am I ? She whimpers.
A tall burly man walks in the musky scent of forestry,
he invades her tongue with sweets then asks, "do you know who I am?"
A splash of recognition takes over, "I think,... I do? "
Without regard to her glass smack the sun returns indiscriminately
and lands, on their playing field.
