and you heard me
in that room
with open doors
people filed in and out
stopped to look at
screaming red circles
and waterblood
she soaked in
her tired patience
and silence
and silence
when he avoided
out of shame
an almost personal moment
he came in through a door
then went back through a door
when was the last time
he's seen a girl cry?
ungentle and rude
and screaming
and screaming
but screams are nice
when the time is right
people are right to be
a little disturbed,
a little frightened,
people are interested
when you scream
see how they move around
this CAUTION
SLIPPERY WHEN WET
avoiding two loose marbles
and walking like they're 80
so careful not to fall
with their eyes on the road
but staring on with their ears
look at this animal
like a mad housewife
without a knife
i screamed and stabbed
at the everything
that no one saw
i hope you know
i'm just looking for a home,
just looking for a home.
