A Stricken Suffering Victim Of Panic Attacks Poem by Terence George Craddock

how do the ignorant the indifferent the callous
view a stricken suffering victim of panic attacks...
with a feeling of shame viewing public inappropriate
with a look of anxiety dismay viewing the unexpected
with a look of condemnation censure strong disapproval
ridicule comes from strangers with no empathy no similar
experience common ground knowledge of panic attacks
'nausea insufficient oxygen chest pain complications'...

'sudden creeping panic attack sweats
viewed in tremor palms of hands
arriving at sudden bullet train speeds'
those fortunate enough to enjoy good health
who suffer no sudden petrified panic attacks
could assist victims with sympathy with empathy...
