thirty screams, thirty thirty screams, thirty how many can you make to clean out all the dirty before you simply break twenty-nine won’t do in can’t encompass all one less is just too few for the whole to fall thirty, screams, thirty each a distinctive cry a feeling so unworthy as if you just could die scream, scream and scream until pain is no more you ‘ll release inner steam just your heart will be sore 2/13/19

This piece shakes me... it is unsettling. And yet I can identify with the sentiment of just wanting to scream until I can’t anymore... this is not an easy one. Somber... but as always skillfully done!
