Those Who Cannot Speak

Scream out against the glass

The sound reflected unable to escape

Desperate to connect

Lashing out at words that fail to appear

Bound in silence

The failure of sound (never learned)

Instinct urges on

As the mind creates its own obstacles

Waging internal war

Between the objects and the abstract

Eloquence of the inner voice

The poetry of the condemned

A stream of consciousness

Never to be understood
