Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Swallow of Disbelief

I am at home and all alone,
Swallowing a vitamin pill.
I feel it lodge in the gulp zone,
And it will not budge from stucksville.
Unable to breathe, I panic.
My throat is locked and will not clear.
I'm getting dizzy and frantic.
My situation is severe.
On the phone, I punch 911.
An operator's on the line.
But no response from me is done.
For now, unconsciousness is mine.

Just a simple vitamin pill.
Hard to swallow that it could kill.
