Deafening Scream 6/20/23
We’re all screaming over each other and no one can’t make out their own voices. The suffering is so loud we don’t even realize we’ve gone deaf, because it continues in our heads. Covering the ears only makes the sound clearer, making noise adds to the sound itself. It’s finds a way to make every second of living torture. Deaths whisper calls out in this chaos, a brief moment of relief before it fades out again and I’m stuck here unable to listen. What a fucking tease.

Good job of using the unraveling components of hearing and sound the way you did in transition. I liked the deaf part - it's as if no one listens, and things are getting louder, in terms of the insanity and chaos of the world. Again, good job of capturing this and putting pen to pad. Appreciate the perception. Take care!
