July 5th is DEAF, like Def Jam

I'm gonna let it out
Just scream and shout!
Can you hear or are you
Too near the speakers
Of your own thoughts
That dominate your
Prefrontal cortex to
Listen to anyone else?

What good would this do?
Vomiting nothing onto the
Arena of someone's thoughts
When they're not even looking,
Listening, hearing, or feeling?
Feel that? It stings being ignored
Or just dinged like a bumper,
How droll life and folks can be.

If you weren't so smug I would
Tell you a secret - from the top
Of my lungs - so loudly stated
You couldn't ignore it - bursting
From depths only Leviathan has swum,
Yet here it goes -
HEAR
It
Goes -
Goes out from my being and
Into the world, cannot be retracted
Since it is unfurled without abandon
To a deaf audience.
