Hold me down Pull me Grab my hair Rip it out and throw me to the ground Fists held in stasis Slow Timeless Viscous Weightless Connect with soft faces I remember it passing me by in silence Like an old black and white movie Flashes of stills Each a captured moment frozen BANG That’s what sound sounds like to silence Loud red der loud der louder. The sound of stillness speaking up. Speeding up. Black and white becomes colour and I’m left with a taste of red on my lips red dripping on your hands red the passion you have to hurt red like a leaf red under a magnifying glass red staring at a specimen red see red sea red she’s red me red peace of red red der redder redderederederederederederederredred dred. Loudereder loudredred Loud. Red. Dred.
