Poem in progress

Unfamiliar and familiar faces
staring on me
Gazing me up and down
Some with sharp curious eyes
Some with teary read ones
Many were anxious.

I felt naked
Undress me did they?

One by one
the faces I recognized
yet failed to remember
came near me
Almost kissing my ears
they whisper.

Strange.

I heard the clock ticking near
the fan spinning fast
and beep beep beep of a weird box

But...
what were they whispering?
