[False Start] Stop. No— Start again. [Fragment I] The room inhales. The walls blink. My heartbeat trips over itself. [Convulsion] Inside. Outside. Inside. Wrong. [Collapse I] My skin is louder than my voice. Every nerve invents another emergency. My bones shake before I move. [Spoken Interruption] Do not touch me. Do not name me. Do not tell me this will pass. [Acceleration] Breath— Cut. Breath— Break. Breath— Gone. [Rupture] I wear a body that won't stay closed. My ribs become broken antennae. Every signal arrives screaming. Nothing inside agrees with itself. [Dead Air] ... [Dislocation] My hands appear seconds too late. The floor tilts toward my mouth. Every doorway opens into another pulse. Every pulse becomes another trap. [Invocation] Peel it away. Peel away the trembling. Peel away the breathing. Find whoever is trapped beneath. [Terminal Loop] Panic without beginning. Panic without ending. Panic beneath the skin. Skin beneath the panic. Again. Again. Again. [Abrupt End] Silence. No relief.
