¨¨¨#¨#¨¨#¨ almost hostile. i can  feel them squirm, ##¨¨¨¨#¨##
¨¨####¨##¨    their internal logic changing and     ¨#¨¨¨###¨#
¨#¨¨¨##¨#¨ grinding trenches in my mind.  it's like ##¨¨#¨¨###
##¨¨#¨#### language,  sentences i can't hide  from, ¨#¨##¨#¨¨#
¨#¨###¨¨¨# forcefully transcribed in  my  mind, and ###¨###¨#¨
###¨¨#¨¨#¨           doing damage there.            ¨¨##¨¨###¨

#¨#¨##¨#¨#    already, droning everything out, a    ¨¨¨¨#¨¨¨¨¨

¨#¨##¨###¨ escape. to crawl on the  floor searching #¨#¨###¨#¨

¨¨#¨¨#¨¨#¨     thirty seconds i'm normal again,     ##¨¨#¨¨¨¨¨
¨##¨##¨##¨ doubting anything  of  this happened  in ¨#¨##¨¨¨¨¨
