Scream

Must...
                                   Scream
but who shall
                                    listen
                                to
                          me
            Scream?
            No one.
I give up.  I stay quiet and
        finally, when I am
                                        alone
             I         scream.
  I scream loudlongneverending
                in a wail to the
heavens.  Then someone comes around                    and                I
can't                                       scream
                      anymore.
