Parent message is 90105
maybe now you’ll stop your
babble
and listen
listen
please to the silence
of you dead
dead
and no more
of the endless
life killing crap
you threw my way

mom you hear?
you hear my heart
louder and clearer
than you allowed?

it’s mine
that’s wound up now
my shits
my blurts
my inabilities
all mine
not me

i am nothing
of you
but sound
