What Panic Showed....

do not misconstrue
panic

or hysteria

do not underestimate
schizoprenia

what is buried
come out as a set of hands

looking for
the pair of eyes

so it can see and feel

do not underate
that laughter or scream

it was that big boat
and behind is that volcano

erupting
your silence was then at the loudest

the answers
to all the questions sit on the bench

at the dark kiosk
proud like a pillar
dignified like the bust of the hero in copper and lead.
