Picket signs high
Shouting
Angry faces
Stop now
Turn away
Head spins in all directions
Eyes blurred
Blue building
Suddenly looks red
Enter
Bright lights
Girls heads hang low
Sign here
Put this gown on
Legs open wide on sternals
Holding side rails
Screen beeps
Would you like to see?
Turn away…no
Shouting is now silent, they still there waiting
Visions of picket signs remain
They won’t leave
Choice, my choice, they chose
No I choose
Extract it

Exactly! Thanks for the comment.
