My skin is screaming

My skin is screaming.
Screaming loud and clear.
My body and mind now joins the screams.
Needing and wanting the pain.

Needing the pain so I can feel.
Wanting the pain to drive out the inner pain.
so without a second thought I cut and cut again.

The scars lokk a mess.
But the scars, they telll a story.
They tell the story of a life with no glory.
The life filled with missery.

This is why skin screams.
Just to cut out the memories and the hell.
Of past events.
My skin mind and body needs the pain

Ok I Will Scream With You

ok i will stand in the corner
and scream with you
but what word shall i use?
your name? my name?
a curse like

what? tell me?
and i will scream with you
like you have never
screamed before.

try me. I can manage
disturbed kids somehow
because i have been there
before you
were born.

When the picture was finished, they took me into the sound room and then I screamed more for about five minutes just steady screaming, and then they'd cut that in and add it.

Capture poem

Capture poem
They are there
In the water
In the air
In the light
In the earth
In the sky.

Capture poem
They are there
In the bark, bray, bleat, bell, bellow, buzz, babbles
In the coo, crow, cackles, croak, chant
They are there
In the grunt, gibber, gaggle, growl
In the melody, monotone, neigh, mew, purr, hiss
In the shriek, squeak, scream, screech,
In the laugh, low, yelp
In the roars, booming, clapping, groaning, drizzling
In the pealing clattering
Capture capture

Sounding Borewell Signals

Good morning
On bicycles and 'bikes run
With kudams and buckets
On first-chore-water-hunting
Provoking heartfelt empathy

Yet water-hunting isn't much
Empathetic but feasting
Warblers squad signalled
Of sounding borewell motor..
Overflowing overhead tank pouring..
Birds many round screeching
In gentle drinking harmony

Empathetic humans jostle..
Water-pumps and metro-water cabs
All by road-side screeching humanly
Sympathy or empathy is humans'
Yet apathy is...?

Just Make It Stop

Just make it stop.
The stillness in the air.
The shattered mirror just sitting their.

The hate.
The anger.
Just make it all stop.
I can't take it no more.
The constant ringing upon my ears.
The blood curdling screams I continuously hear.

Just make it stop.
The stillness in the air.
The shattered mirror just sitting their.

The hate.
The anger.
Just make it all stop.
I can't take it no more.
The constant ringing upon my ears.

Hot Tonight

We dont give a damn what they do for a living
Everywhere we go we party just the same
Getting all my fun
With crazy little girls like you
Playing all your games acting like a fool
Screaming - feel the fire
Screaming - feel the fire - feel it now now now
cause we are hot tonight - hot tonight
cause we are hot tonight - hot tonight
Must be time to go Im feeling hot and sweaty
Find a place to go to make it hardnheavy
Wasting all this time
Would be a silly thing to do
Please dont be a tease now its time me and you
Screaming - feel the fire
Screaming - feel the fire - feel it now now now
cause we are hot tonight - hot tonight
cause we are hot tonight - hot tonight
Screaming - feel the fire
Screaming - feel the fire - feel it now now now

The Voice

The Voice
By: Adam M. Snow

Ever heard of the things that go bump in the night?
When you are alone how it stirs up a fright,
The night's all calm in vespertine stillness,
But that's just the start of a long night of cruelness.
The story starts out with a girl so young,
With boys on her mind as words flow from her tongue.
Her name is Ember, not an age past sixteen,
Alone in a house with something unseen.
Her parent's are gone on a weekend long trip,
Cruising the Bahamas on a romantic cruise ship.
As the story starts she's alone in her room,
On the phone with her best friend Emily Bloom.

'It is true, my parents are gone,
They won't be back till Monday's dawn'
Said Ember to her friend over the phone.
'What are you going to do until then? '

Scream And Holler

Scream and holler baby.
Scream and holler baby.
Scream and holler baby.
Oooh-oooh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby.
Scream and holler baby.
All night long baby.
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm.

Early I Viewed The Morning's New Birth (Cavatina)

Early I viewed the morning's new birth,
the eastern sky
was aflame while I walked on a path
that wounded by
a small copse, some hillocks and a field,
up birds did fly,
pheasants and guinea-fowl screeched protest
while in nature I was extremely blest.

Who I Really Am

Fingers dash across keys, type, type, type
Awkwardly from one key to the next, I told myself I wouldn't write
The computer, the ginger tea, the black text in a sea of white
They subside
As a new reality has come to override

I don't want to be who I was back then...

Screams of an infernal scratching
Voices of endless chiding
Murmurs of infinite condemnation
Each word a wicked consolation speaking to a identity of hatred
Each scream a twisted affirmation of the identity of hatred
Each murmur coaxing out my identity of hatred
Thus he does emerge, the man, the monster
No it's not a scream
No it's not a voice
Not it's not a murmur it's who I am
I made those
I make those

The Sound of Fear

With lingering memory
of the sound of fear
in the voices of men
Screeching tires
A soul's assent
Crumbling metal
and bone
I came
to my senses
Trembling
Broken
Sedated
Incap acitated
but breathing

You came to see me
as I slept
and though gone
when I awoke
my thoughts

Listening

They walk in dreams
nightmarishly
spirits of nameless faces
staring without eyes.

The screams:
of a child
on whom you poured boiling water.

The screams:
of a girl made to wear only flesh, because
she ran away with a priest.

The screams:
of a wipped woman
who tasted the laughing moonlight.

Death makes a big hole
in a spooky silence!
Are you listening?

Love's Touch

Love's blind touch gropes in our dark
and I hear you giggle
reveling in the hide and seek
in your cape of satin sheets
the lights out
pitch black
the only sound
is of stealthy breathing
which first lurks

and then leaps

straight onto my back

I shriek the shriek

and you the vampire bat

clutch my trembling neck

Audio

i cannot stand silence.

so give me the banging of drums,
and the clash of cymbals to scare it away.

i want guitar riffs that rip the air
into shreds leaving the calm in disarray.

i cannot stand silence.

talk, sing, scream or screech me to sleep
anytime if you may.
