to let loose a scream unto the universe
may be the only sound in between you and insanity,
as if opening your mouth wide to exude such energy
is necessary to be sane when all other approaches
to reach sanity have failed you thus far,
so please:
scream as loud as fucking possible
so you don’t keep repeating past mishaps that go discounted
to those on the outside
while you suffer on the inside,
guts wrenched and squeezed and squandered
the more you suppress your innate desire to produce a sound
heard from space —
the same sound ruminating in your chaotic mind
that needs silenced
