RNC

By Gray Vision

Approached from behind,
Swift, tight grasp around the neck,
The struggling begins,
And that’s only the first step.
Gasping and gagging,
Trying to catch a breath,
You feel the grasp tighten,
And that’s the second step.
The flailing fastens,
Your gasps shortens,
Your vision blurs
And that’s the third step.
Everything slows down,
And the flailing ceases,
Waking up,
Wondering what happened,
Now that’s the forth step.

    Thought this might be about the Republican National Committee. Anyway, it sounds like you got mugged by somebody who put you in a sleeper hold, scary stuff, thanks.
