On Getting Out


                        Half of me tries to scream, the other half
                     laugh
                  at myself. What would I care about
                           out
            there, the noise of a mindless crowd
                                 loud
      enough to silence mine in a colorless cloud?
         So I should get out? relax? break a smile?
            I can do even better than that! Watch, I'll
                                          laugh out loud.

    I wonder sometimes about how we as Shakespeare said ‘doth protest too much’ and why?

    Missing that laugh of yours. But knowing you’ll make it out, love.
