SHOUT!
I hate the sounds of July
and October . . .
of innocence lost and
mostly I hate . . .
Crack- hissss . .. pop and BOOM
Pow! It’s here!
It’s there
And they’ll never learn
I keep washing, washing
And the spot won’t come out.
I can’t shout them out of my mind,
Any easier than I can make it go away.
