  2. i am emptied of all meaningful thought
    just a corridor
    where the clatter of a plate
    or the scraping of a chair echoes,
    shriek sharp,
    cutting the eardrums
    and scrambling the space behind the
    eyes
    cluttered alphabet tumbling loose and
    clacking
    against my chattering teeth

  3. Lost
    And last
    Found in
    The wild
    Gales,
    The last
    Shriek
    Of wind,
    At the
    Terminus
    Of winter.
    Bearing portent,
    Speaking verse,
    Vision fails
    In the seeking,
    Past
    Buried in
    Cursed
    Ground.

  4. When your shriek of joy
    Is as head-splitting
    As your scream of frustration
    Then we put away our words.

    I nestle my split pieces between
    Noise-cancelling headphones
    To do the easiest thing ever done,
    Which is loving you.

    he cried
    she sighed
    he moaned
    she groaned
    he shouted
    she pouted
    he yelled
    she welled
    he frowned
    she gowned
    he ordered
    she bordered
    he commanded
    she demanded
    he complained
    she retained
    he chased
    she faced
    he retreated
    she defeated
    he fought
    she taught
    he squeaked
    she shrieked
    he hit
    she quit
    it ended
    upended

  6. A sharp shock
    Cold slicing our skin
    Sound emitting fast
    From open mouth
    Blood-curdling
    A banshee wail
    Ripping from lips
    High-pitched
    The sound berserker
    Human siren

  7. Two lines. Two dreaded lines that I didn't want to see today, or at all. I let out a loud shriek of disbelief. After carefully avoiding it for two years, today was the day that I too would become another statistic.

    Now for me, it's back to bed.

  8. In the darkness of the fields
    Still cold steel lies waiting breathlessly
    Silhouettes of trees brace on the rise.
    Just ine more.

    The train shrieks through the world
    Air and fire burst explode onwards
    A firework illuminating the night.
    Wakeful riders peer into the blur.

  9. The night was still
    Still and heavy
    Heavy was his heart
    Heart that beat a drum
    ‘Drum up the courage’
    Courage to dig up the corpse
    Corpse! Not living! A ghost! The #shriek!
    Shriek that could wake up the dead
    Dead but screaming! Nothing
    Nothing can calm his mind
    Mind haunted by those memories
    Memories in his soul, and in this grave
    Grave is the solution
    Solution to end the guilt forever
    Forever he must lay dead and haunted
    Haunted by the woman that he killed
