Intimidation


I am approaching a cold, brightly lit room filled with occupied chairs and lingering whispers. I take a seat. Palms sweating, heart racing; I am becoming one of them. My mind scrambles for the words. Everything I say is being judged. And thinking back to the past, how did I end up here? I don’t deny it happened. The evidence puts me in my place. I am guilty.
